Warning: Pure Silliness Ahead

In my spare time this semester I have preoccupied myself by making a patchwork quilt. This has been a VERY time consuming project but I guess that is exactly what I wanted it to be. As I have been sewing and quilting recently I have been watching some of my favorite movies: Christy, Pride and Prejudice, and Anne of Green Gables. I have thoroughly enjoyed them, probably more than I ever have before. I LOVE THEM! (Since I am a girl,) as I look back and reflect upon why they are so amazing I have to admit that it is because they are all good romances. I promise that I like them for more than the romance though! The other day I sat there thinking about all these movies and I started comparing the men and asked myself which one I liked best. It was a hard choice because they are all so good!

This is Neil McNeil from the tv series Christy. He is an amazing doctor who chose to work in the tiny backwoods town of Cutter Gap because he is loyal to and loves his people. He is stubborn but rugged and has a Scottish accent!

This, of course, is Mr. Darcy from A&E's version of Pride and Prejudice. He is extremely wealthy but yet is still teachable and learns kindness and humilty in the movie. He doesn't smile much but when he does...look out!

This is David Grantland from Christy. He is the preacher for Cutter Gap. He works so hard to bring religion and what he knows is right and good to the people in those mountains. He also has to compete with Neil McNeil for Christy's affections.


This is Gilbert Blythe from Anne of Green Gables. Gilbert and Anne have grown up together since Anne came to Green Gables at age 12. He has always secretly loved her but she is too headstrong to see it and accept it for many years. Through all the years and rejections from Anne he stays ever loyal and in love with her. He is also amazingly smart and becomes a doctor.



Like I said, they are all GREAT choices! But I was able to choose the one I liked the best. Drumroll please..............




GILBERT BLYTHE!!

I chose him because he is just a normal but amazing guy who fell in love with an awkward looking and acting redheaded twelve year old. He didn't give up! He is smart and could have had a prestegious career but chose to just help normal people who needed him. He always put Anne first, giving up jobs and opportunities when he knew it would benefit her. I can't even describe how great he is! You will just have to watch the movies :) I was probably a little biased to him though because, out of all three stories, I think that Anne and Gilbert's the most romantic. Actually I might venture to say that it is the MOST romantic story I have ever heard, watched, or read! That is saying something because I have read and watched more romance novels and chick flicks that I would like to to admit.

Thanks for putting up with my random ramblings! And if you know these stories and men please feel free to share who you would choose.
