Ralph/Meggie (The Thorn Birds)- "Cares about her? If you ask me, he's in love with her."

Welcome to the Ralph and Meggie Thread






Ralph de Bricassart: Meggie's dress was rose. "Ashes of Roses", it was called. And in it, she was the most beautiful thing any of us had ever seen.







Meggie Cleary: The day that I first saw you at the Gilly station, you smiled at me, then you said my name. Then you touched me.
[She kisses him]
Meggie Cleary: And since that day, I have somehow known, though I never saw you again, that my last thought this side of the grave would be of you.
[shrugs]
Meggie Cleary: And there's nothing I can do to change it. Do you know how terrifying it is, that power you have over me?




Young Meggie Cleary: Oh Father. I'm so glad I'm not dying. What would I ever do without you?
Ralph de Bricassart: Oh silly. You'll never be without me

Wow, there's a blast from the past.

I wonder if anyone else will post. I've read the book, and watched the miniseries way back.

Oh I love them! Well her espacially.
I grew up watching and re watching it cause my mom loved it. I think i saw it hundred of times!
Even though my vision of it changed with age, i'm still addicted to it and can help it but watch it every christmas vacacions.

As a kid I thought their love story was so beautiful. Now that I watch it as an adult, I can help but noticed what a jerk he has been to her her entire life.

She is amazing!! She fought so hard for what she wanted even though she was losing everything that she ever had.

I still love them as a couple and they'll still be in my top 10 but I'm way more fascinated by her.

Julie- I saw a video on youtube of them and was like "No way, I remember liking these two when I watched this with mom". I like the forbidden romance couples it seems lol.

Im glad to see more people who liked these two. Its a classic romantic movie of forbidden love.

I've been chatting away at The Thorn Birds Thread at The 80's board, and thought to look here to see if there were an appreciation thread for this couple... and lo' and behold... Jenny started a thread!

I don't think I've ever seen the last picture before that's in the OP! Very nice. Can you add me to the list, Jenny?

There's this video (majority) of Meggie and Ralph, and it's just absolutely amazing! It's one of my favorites! Original Sin by Elton John.



"Original Sin"

Oh, it's carnival night
And they're stringing the lights around you
Hanging paper angels
Painting little devils on the roof

Oh the furnace wind
Is a flickering of wings about your face
In a cloud of incense
Yea, it smells like Heaven in this place

I can't eat, can't sleep
Still I hunger for you when you look at me
That face, those eyes
All the sinful pleasures deep inside

Tell me how, you know now, the ways and means of getting in
Underneath my skin,
Oh you were always my original sin
And tell me why, I shudder inside, every time we begin
This dangerous game
Oh you were always my original sin

A dream will fly
The moment that you open up your eyes
A dream is just a riddle
Ghosts from every corner of your life

Up in the balcony
All the Romeo's are bleeding for your hand
Blowing theater kisses
Reciting lines they don't understand

I can't eat, can't sleep
Still I hunger for you when you look at me
That face, those eyes
All the sinful pleasures deep inside

Tell me how, you know now, the ways and means of getting in
Underneath my skin,
Oh you were always my original sin
And tell me why, I shudder inside, every time we begin
This dangerous game
Oh you were always my original sin


Enjoy.

Please add me

I remember watching this movie when I was younger and just loving it and them. My mum recently got the DVD so I need to re-watch it. I still remember so much of it because I used to constantly watch it LOL.

the third pic though...I've never seen that before? I'm staarting to think I may have missed some parts of the mini (or a prequel?). Which I did the same thing with North & South, it wasn't until years later that I realised there was more then the part after George and Orry parted with the ripped money note, lol.

LOL! I thought it was strange because in that pic the actors look the same age and Ralph was always much older then her. I only skimmed over that pic quickly, but do you know who it was of?
