Jane Austen Movie Throwdown
Last week we asked you to choose which hero in uniform you liked best. And while many readers liked Colonel Brandon, the majority chose Captain Wentworth in his dashing navy uniform. This week you are asked to choose your favorite militia man from the three actors who portrayed Mr. Wickham.
Adrian Lukis - he has the perfect Mr. Wickham smirk.
ReplyDeleteRupert Friend...all the way! I did not remember how great looking Wickham was from P&P 2005. Wow!
ReplyDeleteOh how I've been waiting for this poll...
ReplyDeleteLukis was great since he was my first ever Wickham. Riley was dashing AND intriguing - kept wondering what he would be up to next! As for Rupert Friend ...DELISH!
ReplyDeleteI chose Tom Riley, though I haven't watched Lost in Austen yet, but he looked dashing with the hat.
ReplyDeleteSteamy Darcy
I think all three actors portrayed Wickham well. But I go with Tom Riley. I loved his take on the character — and he's totally rockin' that hat. =)
ReplyDeleteTom Roliey's characvterisation of Whickam was the best (smiles).
ReplyDeleteRupert Friend as a long haired Wickham is the best looking, but a little lacking in military bearing for my taste...Adrian L. was the slimiest Wickham, with the best uniform and Tom R. ? Well, you know how I disliked that version, so I must go with Adrian L.
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard! The actors I prefer aren't necessarily in the costumes I prefer, so I just go with the costumes. I think Wickham 2005 has the best ensemble, but his hair is totally atrocious. Oh, well.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the next Throwdown!
