Parabéns Jane Austen



Jane Austen nasceu no dia 16 de Dezembro de 1775, em Steventon, Hampshire.
Hoje está de parabéns pois faz 234 anos.

É impressionante que passados dois séculos, ela continue a deliciar as mentes dos jovens (mulheres mas também homens) e as suas obras continuem a ser adaptadas , e a servirem de inspiração, ao cinema, televisão e livros

Ela é, assim como as suas obras, intemporal!

Olá 2010! Viva 2009!


Aproximamo-nos de 2010 (o que significa que estou a ficar mais velha!), e como não podia deixar de ser, o ano novo serve para presentear músicos, realizadores, actores, etc.. (ainda não sei em que categoria me insiro!) com prémios que apenas fazem bem aos seus egos (e carteiras, claro!).

Em 2010 iremos ver o que de melhor de fez em 2009 (e o pior também!).

Vamos começar com os Golden Globe Awards, dia 17 de Janeiro, que, como toda a gente sabe, precedem os Oscars, logo o mais certo é quem ganha um golden globe, ganhará também um oscar (às vezes falha!).
