It’s time for some Men in Costume Dramas tributes. It’s probably also time for me to break out some of these movies/miniseries and re-watch them.

Our first is set to one of my favorite songs, “L-O-V-E” by Nat “King” Cole and features Richard Armitage as John Thornton in North & South and Matthew Macfadyen as Mr. Darcy in Pride & Prejudice ’05.

This next one is a tribute to men in costume dramas set to a very unexpected song (though, unfortunately, not the original version of the song, which would have been better). The compiler pulled from a wider variety of historical-set movies than we usually see in these—including a really quick clip from Timeline featuring the yummylicious Gerard Butler opposite Anna Friel, the template for Julia in the Ransome books.)

This may be my favorite one that I’ve seen—it’s more a tribute to the couples/relationships than just the men in costumes, but it gave me chills. (And the couple it ends with should make several of my regular readers VERY happy!)
