i love going on youtube and hearing a whole bunch of different accents, english takes well to being accented, and most english speakers are used to it

English is my one and only language, yet I still can't talk it so I agree with this comment. English is fucking hard; even for us native speakers who only speak English. :::)

Yeah English is hard

same i love accents(really any type) with a passion.

The fun part about English is that its complexity gives it a lot of pun potential

I actually laughed out loud reading this on the train

Well, I hope not to many people looked at you funny :)

Hilarious 😂

I loved Amadeus, and it was the costumes that won me over. Granted, I'm not a costume designer, even an amateur one. But Amadeus, for all its faults, attempted to capture the exuberance of the late 18th Century.

Come now love, baby lambs don’t look like atrocities !

Adelaide Beeman-White Same! Like even though it's a great movie, Gone With the Wind is full of the 1930's hairstyles, and there is another movie from the 1960s I saw recently and it was set in an earlier era but was full of beehive hairdos (and I can't remember what movie it was!!!)

I remember I read a book set in a society where everyone emulates the 18th century, and has to wear period clothing, and the main character of course wears stays, and her over lacing them kind of factors into the story, and I was super salty because the cover of the second book had a picture of a late 19th century corset on it, and that is NOT anything this character would be wearing!

Adelaide Beeman-White Ugh, same. I'm obsessed with 1770s and 1780s fashion and whenever I see movies that take place there I feel rage.

The thing about all movies is that they don't have to be accurate. Are Tarantino movies accurate? Of course not! But plenty of them are set in the modern day. It's about the feel you want to create, and the audience you're making the film for. When you hear costumers talk about a lot of the costumes they create, they're often quick to point out inaccuracies and the reasons they made them inaccurate. It's usually because they were trying to create a certain mood or emphasize an aspect about a character.

headphonic8 exactly If movies had to be accurate to be enjoyed probably 95 percent wouldn’t have been made

Liz Tee genius!

Haha OMG yes!

👏😂

Honestly, thank you I always fuck this up😂😂😂

Ruby Black me too

I always get confused by this. Thanks!

Took me years to stop mixing it up, who's fucking brilliant idea was it too arrange the english language like this

@@lilsaam It`s not just English, that`s just the weird way centuries are arranged. Honestly, I don't get why we can't just call between the years 1 and 99 "century 0" and move on from there, it would be much easier.

omg Reign costumes are enough for a whole separate channel

@ But please talk about Outlander someday! It is mid-18th century and there is some english fashion, some scottish fashion some french fashion...

OMG Reign was so terrible in so many ways (costumes being a major one, but historical inaccuracies being another) that I could barely get through the first episode. It pained me to see Megan Follows in that.

Reign's costumes are so bad I got barely one episode in and died over the prom dresses

Yes please please please do Outlander. I personally think they do a really good job.

Ivelisse Álvarez hey! not op and I don't know much about the 19th century, but as for potc, that scene is pretty much entirely over-dramaticised. I can't remember the scene in much detail, but her stays wouldn't be tight enough to make her faint like that, and she certainly wouldn't be unused the feeling of wearing stays, she would have worn them since childhood. a pair of well-fitting stays is quite comfortable, and that scene is really just nonsense

I just had a conversation with someone about this! We hypothesized that maybe they're meant to be tight-laced to fit the new dress she was wearing. She certainly would have worn stays on a daily basis, but her father says something about a new style when he gives her the dress. Tighter lacing than normal plus heat could possibly equal light-headedness. It's still pretty far-fetched though.

Just to add to this. There was a lot of lead used back then, so heat + tight stays + plus exposure to lead could cause her to faint for quite a bit of time. Still far fetched though

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but "steampunk" was never really a historical thing, it was a style invented in the 1990s for time traveling movies, the actual people of the 19th century would never actually wear copper and brass machine parts on their bodies... Like sure, the fashion would be the same, but without all the time travelling robot nonsense.. P.S. I love steampunk myself, it's just not historically accurate

Yeah, the part where Kira faints bothers me because they couldn't achieve that tight a fit in the 1700s. It wasn't possible until metal eyelets were invented in the early Victorian period.

I think that's why Barry Lyndon impresses me so much, because up to 1970s it was perfectly normal to have a leading lady wear a contemporary hair, make up and undergarments and then have her frolick around in a kitschy satin gown with a cut resembling the modern ones. and then Barry Lyndon came and was like BOOYAAH! HOW 'BOUT DAH!

they look pretty historically accurate- (if i’m looking at the right one)

I remember getting so excited when I saw that her corset didn’t have metal ringlets to fit the period

Jennifer Hendrickson Tudors is bloody terrible! Crimes against HA!!!

@@mrsbeard5225 I had to quit watching it because it bothered me so badly.

I'm a year later but I wanted to ask about those too, especially Outlander.

Ninnisha i’m a year late as well but i’d love to hear her discuss the outlander costumes!!

And compare the other jane eyre films

@@jennyboldrini7330 What are these "other" _Jane Eyre_ films of which you speak? There is only one and it starred Timothy Dalton & Zelah Clarke.

@@bonniea8189 my favourite stared Ciaran Hinds, 1997 I think

@@jennyboldrini7330 Oh noes! That one was dreadful! Mr. Hinds' portrayal of Rochester came across as a bully! I couldn't believe it when I saw others saying it, because I had so liked him as Col. Wentworth in Persuasion, but it's true. His portrayal veered more into the violent aspects of Rochester's nature than the text portrayed. Brontë's Rochester threatened violence, but admitted quickly afterward that he couldn't act on it because he loved Jane too well. Hinds' Rochester threatened, more than Brontë's did, and didn't withdraw the threat. He really came across as a bully and I just couldn't stomach it. Try reading the scene and then watching it. I've read & re-read & listened to the audiobook version (check out Elizabeth Klett's version on LibriVox) probably 50 times. The Dalton/Clarke version is most true to the text. Perhaps there's an argument to be made for interpretation vs. adaptation, but I do like such movies to resemble the books, *if* I've read the book first. If I watch the movie first, then the discrepancies don't trouble me as much. In fact, I like the movie ending of (Gaskell's) North and South better than the book's. But there are other scenes in the book that I think should've made it into the TV movie version.

Just compare different Jane Eyre film adaptations, that would be cool!

Thank you for naming the film. I had never heard of it and wasn't sure I was understanding the name correctly.

Ok, but this video is on the 1770s-80s, so you're over a century off.

@@ericspencer8093 No they were replying to the request for click bait titles for future videos.

+Seth Amaradasa omg this 🙏🏻

Instructor: "What's worse than a robbery?" **removes paper, the word "train" is revealed above "robbery"** Dude: "A train." Instructor: "NO-"

Seth Amaradasa hahahaha one of my favorite vines

Yes!

Alex Broadway Titanic has some of my favorite costumes, I’d love to see her take on it!

Yes!! We need to know! James Cameron wanted a lot of the film to be accurate to how it happened so you’d hope the costumes followed suit.

As far as I remember, some of Rose's dresses were based on real garments and fashion plates (for example, her stripped garments in which she appeares in movie for the first time).

I just (last year) saw some of those costumes in person on display at the Biltmore mansion in Asheville. Super cool.

Titanic was accurate!

savage

Julia Marasha, yes please!

Ooh downtown abbey yes!!

Oh! And do the BBC War and Peace miniseries!

I'd love to see this too! Especially in the late 18th century, there's a misconception that everyone painted their face clown white and covered in fake moles. Just looking at portraits from the period show us that the natural look was more fashionable.

BisonShades I *loved* Claudia’s costumes- especially the 1870’s ones- they are so glamorous

Elena Burger frock flicks is amazing

Panna Sasna same here! Can't wait for another episode! Maybe she could rate the movie "Belle" .. 2014 I think? About Dido Elizabeth Belle

i think the same

Oh, I love that film soooooo much!

YES

It's a great song. 👍🏻

+Tom Chandler GONE SEXUAL

Karolina Żebrowska You won’t believe what Thomas does next!

Haven't seen The Beguiled yet, but I already hate the costumes! Why are they all white, floppy and ill-fitted? And what's wrong with their corsets? Yuck! I've talked about Marie Antoinette but cut it out. It should be up next!

Karolina Żebrowska I also hate those vintage "stereotypes" like people who are trying to be 1980's by just putting on flashy colours and like those tutu skirts and crazy make up.Or if people nowadays think about the seventies fashion, Everyone think everyone back then dressed like a hipie.Make it stop!

Actually the converse were put in as a nod to the fact that she was still a teenager!

I loved that detail.

I loved that detail.

I get what you're saying... most of the time it's the costume/muah designer's fault though. they're like "whaat? we can't have the LEAD look ugly". the actors are not responsible for the research, so they just agree. but I've heard of some cases where the actors themselves have been pushing the designers towards historical accuracy even if it costs them good looks - like Bette Davis in the 1930s flick about Elisabeth I. kudos to them!

makeupandglory I love this show but there's one critic I can make : those french people in the background in the last season are babbling nonsense (though clearly french native speakers) and act really bad. Demelza 4eva

In the 18th century, women would never wear their hair down like Demelza. The makeup used in the film is very 21st century-ish. I don't think they were trying to be historically accurate.

Except for Caroline Penbenen's outfits, the costumes look a bit "cookie cutter" -as if they were all made from the same pattern. And they should have shown some change over the years, but they didn't. The costumes from the original 1975 Poldark series did show change over time, but they were sometimes poorly executed.

Pluezil Vlk Not even the poor people? Maybe it's a kind of habit for Demelza because of her heritage ...

Juliane Pidde, poor women would be working women (in the fields, on the farm, or in the factories in the cities, in the shops, as maids or even begging), you best believe they would never let their hair flow untamed as it be impractical and long hair would disturb their work (they were all wearing head scarves and had their hair tied up or plaid up) and long flowing hair was only done in the bedroom after dark (so no woman would be seen like that in the public, everyone would expect her to be a harlot)

Never mind, I made a video about it myself.

The costumes were pretty awful in The Tudors. They were going more for a cinematic style rather than historical accuracy.
