#2 Wishing  Pretty in Pink: Ava as Miss Havisham
Ava as Miss Havisham from Dickens' "Great Expectation" who is stood up by her fiancé on her wedding day and never takes off her wedding dress or puts away the wedding breakfast and cake even as she grows to be an embittered and lonely decrepit old woman.
Today, Miss Havisham poses in a lavish pink gown for a portrait that her fiancé, Mr. Compeyson, has encouraged her to have painted.
Miss Havisham (thinking): "My wonderful fiancé has said that this portrait will immortalize me as I am as we await our wedding. He says that it will forever remind us of our our youthful days of love: 'With this portrait,' he says, 'you shall be frozen in time.'"
"I must remind myself of his words as I stand here and pose. I must fight this restless feeling...I know what will help: imagining myself as I will be on our wedding day, the happiest day of my life.
"If I could wish for a day on which to be frozen in time, it would be that glorious day, the day when I will become the woman that I was born to be, forever enveloped in my exquisite feelings for the man I love..."
