A tribute to classic romance novels on film

This video of vignettes is the Cliff Notes version of two of my favorite classes as an English major: Fiction to Film and a Jane Austen Seminar.   You can still take these, and similar courses, through our English department.


I believe every film that appears in here is a classic novel.  I can name a handful of them (if I had six fingers).  Can anyone help identify the rest?

Pride and Prejudice (1995 BBC miniseries & 2005 Miramax film)
Emma (1996 film)
Sense & Sensibility (1995 film)
Persuasion (1995 film)
North & South--by Elizabeth Gaskell, not John Jakes (2004 BBC miniseries)
Little Women (1994 film)

That's "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" sung by the late Israel Kamakawiwo'ole
