Introduction to Cinema by Jo March (PG)
Fandom: THE WEST WING
Pairing: Josh/Donna
Author on LJ: Jo March
Author Website: Fanfic with Footnotes
Why this must be read:
Well, it's just not possible to recommend West Wing Fanfics without picking something from the fabulous Jo March and Ryo Sen. The problem comes, of course, with deciding which of their numerous wonderful fics to choose!
In the end I decided on this one, which is a post ep. to the Season 2 episode "Ellie", in which it's Film Night at the White House and the President and his staff gather to watch Dial M for Murder.
In the fic, Josh and Donna discuss the merits of screwball comedy - and of course don't really see the parallels that we can see! (well, Josh doesn't...)
I also chose it because it references one of my all time favourite movies - His Girl Friday - if you've never seen it, go rent the DVD immediately!
"You know what else is interesting about His Girl Friday? Every time Rosalind Russell thinks she's getting out of that office, Cary Grant comes up with some flimsy excuse to make her stay. She's a smart woman, and yet she falls for it every time."
"After the movie, we should probably come back here and work on the VAWA2 research."
"Yeah, you're right. We really should."
"Shouldn't take more than a couple of hours."
"And we can still make the six o'clock train to Albany."
"Huh?"
"Just watch His Girl Friday, Josh. It will all make sense then."
*snigger*!
Enjoy!
