The premise of the film, for anybody who isn't familiar, is that a person whose life isn't going well makes a comment that he wishes that he had never been born. His wish gets granted and he gets to see what life would be like for the people he knows if he hadn't been part of their lives. It started as a short story called 'The Greatest Gift'.Cerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908542708518435282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-44824250621335266812021-01-28T22:59:06.397+00:002021-01-28T22:59:06.397+00:00So glad you enjoyed the excerpt!So glad you enjoyed the excerpt!Cerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908542708518435282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-61431160988708350862021-01-28T22:58:39.471+00:002021-01-28T22:58:39.471+00:00It's been available on kindle since mid-Januar...It's been available on kindle since mid-January, if you haven't picked it up already :)Cerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908542708518435282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-9557511258631572522021-01-28T22:57:40.056+00:002021-01-28T22:57:40.056+00:00It's a great idea isn't it!It's a great idea isn't it!Cerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908542708518435282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-85280098682558850582021-01-28T22:56:33.390+00:002021-01-28T22:56:33.390+00:00It's such a great premise, isn't it Carole...It's such a great premise, isn't it Carole!Cerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908542708518435282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-4301122421654973622021-01-28T22:55:23.929+00:002021-01-28T22:55:23.929+00:00That's very true, Darcy has lots more knowledg...That's very true, Darcy has lots more knowledge about the other characters than they would have of their 'new' acquaintance. I wonder what benefit he will get from this knowledge. He will also have the benefit of a clean slate with them, but on the flipside, he may have no money whatsoever and not be in a position to marry, or even stay around for long! It will be interesting to see how the story pans out.Cerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908542708518435282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-70314957800190486142021-01-28T22:52:25.425+00:002021-01-28T22:52:25.425+00:00I agree, I think Jane would have been Mrs Collins ...I agree, I think Jane would have been Mrs Collins without Bingley being an option.

Mr Darcy had probably quite enjoyed himself up until the point where Elizabeth didn't love him back. As a powerful young man he would suddenly have all of that taken away from him and I think it would be a real shock to the system!Cerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908542708518435282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-11302775678005429662021-01-28T22:39:11.993+00:002021-01-28T22:39:11.993+00:00Oh I know, poor Jane!

I love the inventiveness of rewriting a story and seeing what would happen if things were different, and both P&P variations and It's a Wonderful Life do just that, so it's such a fun idea to combine them.
