By far the finest adaptation of the Jane Austen's novel. Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth were superb in the staring roles, the cinematography was excellent, it was a totally pleasant experience. It is a shame that A&E sold out and no longer produces this high quality of enterainment.

I just didn't like this series... in the Movie, Kolin the pastor married one of sisters, NOT some cousin. Costumes were shabbily designed, too much talk-talk-talk and say nothing. Overall - the movie was way better made compare to this show...

The mini-series is THE Pride and Prejudice, faithful to the book and has lots of dialogue that does not appear in the book (Which is more of a thoughtful book) but appears in other Austen books, so is still authentic. The performances are brilliant, and not just by Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth, but by most of the cast. They again, are the performances by which all others should be measured That said, why the company chose this particular print to use is beyond me. It is pale and washed out, not at all true to the original production, or to production values at the time. There are many times that the costumes are the same shade as the background and that is not true of the original There are no subtitles, inexcusable in a recently produced DVD. As a person who is VERY hard of hearing, I need subtitles, and that is the primary reason that I have switched to DVDs. In this case, I know the production pretty much word for word, so it is not critical, but it is another demerit to be set to the producers account. All in all I view this as a requirement of life. It's too bad the production was not up the excellence of the performancesRead full review
This version of P&P is the best by far, the characters are engaging and the story line is definitely one that keeps you guessing! I love the way Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy respond to each other, you just see the passion growing between them in their eyes!

I had originally bought the BBC version, from England & watched it on my computer. When I got my new DVD player, the BBC version would not play on it. This, however does, & it is a MUCH better version! There are no episode breaks after each episode, the color quality is better, & there are a few tweaks that are not on the BBC version. All in all a great buy!!
