pernicious piggy said...: I had hoped that the third Anne movie/mini-series would have been about the union of the two "bosom friends"....clearly, I just needed to look deeper into the first series subtext!; 3:20 AM

danielle z said...: Oh! Swoon... I think Anne was possibly my first crush. That irresistible marriage of fierce independence and ginger hair... Fabulous choice.; 6:48 AM
Heather Anne Hogan said...: "Indeed I will," sobbed Diana, "and I'll never have another bosom friend--I don't want to have. I couldn't love anybody as I love you."

"Oh, Diana," cried Anne, clasping her hands, "do you love me?"

"Why, of course I do. Didn't you know that?"

Siiiiiiiigh.; 8:54 AM

V. Wetlaufer said...: Of course! BOSOM friends! My only bosom friends have been friends whose bosoms I liked to touch. Ah, I love those books/movies. They inspired years of angst/longing. And I think they're why I'm a teacher today.

PS--Welcome back to the internet!; 3:03 PM

Yoda said...: Oh Ms. Snarker you never fail to amaze me. I'm a closet Anne Shirley, et al fan. I've seen all the movies at least 3 times, "it's kismet". Such bosom friends forever, and they totally hooked up.; 6:51 PM

mousse said...: Anne was one of my first crushes as well. Red hair is still my favourite!; 8:25 AM
ariel said...: I'm not so sure about Anne and Diana, but I have to agree with mousse that Emily and Isle were meant to be together. Teddy was way too moony.; 1:54 PM
