Belle is my favorite. I'm talking about the Josette Day portrayal of course.

I always get a kick out of this scene:

FYC, you might want to vet your answer pool again, there are more than a few errors? I found the character's birth dates to range from the 14th to 20th centuries and the settings to range from the 18th to 21st centuries. There is a very distinctive clothing style associated with the early 19th century that separates it from Colonial-styled outfits that you should look for in your images. Plus, more than a few answer options were unclear whether they were valid or not as the settings or timeline seems to straddle the 18th/19th centuries with a depicted timeframe somewhere between 1790 and 1810 in the title.

It makes a difference if they are depicted in the 18th century (1701-1800) or born in the 18th century (1701-1800) as some characters would qualify even if the are show in an early 19th century (1801-1810) depicted series.

Also, I am most uncertain on these characters depicted and

are the first ones I would take a closer look at.

That's right, Urbane! Only the years 1701 through 1800 belong to the 18th century. Just as our century consists of 2001 through 2100.

Hi Jaf, all you'd have to do about that particular problem is change the title from "18th Century" to "19th Century" -- I mean if, in fact, you want the poll to cover the 1800s -- and cut anyone outside of those years. If you want to, you could do different polls for each of the centuries right before the 20th and just move the characters to the correct lists.

'Great idea for a poll! : )

FYC: (The names are hyperlinked to IMDb photos from the films; all of the below characters were real people.)(I don't know what centuries you want to do so I just included any I thought of.)

The 18th Century:

Sarah from 'The Favourite' (You have Abigail and Queen Anne but not Sarah). That movie is set in the early 18th century (Queen Anne's last fifteen years were from 1700-1715).

The 19th Century:

Emily Brontë (1818-1848) from 'Emily'

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) from 'A Quiet Passion'

Camille Claudel (1864-1943) (film takes place in the earlier part of her life so the 1800s)

The 16th Century:

(both from 'The Other Boleyn Girl')

Anne Boleyn

Mary Boleyn
