Well sure, if we're counting movies. I'm sure there's a Firth/McPhee fic out there somewhere.
They should film that story and show it every Christmas.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm sure there was a couple in Love Actually I rooted for...often I tend to just root for the guy I like to get whoever he wants, if she doesn't bother me too much. When I find myself rooting for the woman to get the guy, that's when I know I've been totally sold on the relationship. With Yu Shu Lien I was rooting so so hard for her to get Li Mu Bai...and I think she did get him, when they had tea in that spare concrete room.
I need to see Love Actually again to be sure.
I noted to my sister my lust for the black shirt that Watson wore to dinner with Holmes--military stylings, with ribbons, black on black. I would kill small things for a good screenshot of it.

I saw The Young Victoria this evening and thoroughly enjoyed it. I kept looking around for things I might have seen in the Victoria & Albert museum in London...one of my favorite excursions of all time.
It certainly wasn't life changing, but I love me a biopic and this one made me smile.

The photo is not good enough in any case, but I'm still curious to know if it is the right shirt.

No, it's black and high-collared with horizontal black ribbon detailing. Jilli must have noticed it. Maybe she can describe it better. It wasn't in any action scenes, so I don't know if it makes any still shots.

Thank you.

Steph, thank you for finding that! I was going to comment that I was trying to find a good screen shot of that shirt to pass on to the Infamous BlueJay for re-creation purposes.

Amélie Poulain and Nino Quincampoux are the only screen couple with a happy ending that I can recall rooting for strongly this decade. Otherwise it's all tragic losses or the character I like of the pair learning that he/she can stand on his/her own.
