This is the absolute best rendition of the timeless romantic comedy of 19th century English society. Unlike the latest Keira Knightly version you don't need to read the book to understand the complex plot of the story. The gorgeous countryside and the beautiful costumes only add to the charming story. Too often the emphasis is on location, costumes or sound track and the acting doesn't convey the circumstance of society or the relationship of the protagonists. Here the acting is superb. This is one of my all time favorite love stories. It has complexity, intelligence and style. Pride and Prejudice is the story of Elizabeth Bennet, one of five unmarried daughters living in the countryside of 19th-century England. In a world where obtaining an advantageous marriage is a woman's sole occupation, Elizabeth's independent manner threatens her family's fortune. She finds Mr. Darcy arrogant and condescending. He finds her below his position and not pretty enough to tempt him. They both know little of the other's real personality and dislike each other immediately. The resolution of these strong first impressions through accident and happenstance and the intelligence to recognize error make this story fascinating and wonderful.Read full review
My friends and I are Pride and Prejudice collectors. We like the Colin Firth version of Pride and Prejudice the best so I was pleased to get this complete set of the mini-series at such a reasonable price. My only complaint of the production is the ending. In the book Lizzie explains to her father the wonderful lengths Darcy has gone for her family and her reasons for loving him. In the film, Lizzie says to Jane that her affection for Darcy is based on his beautiful home, a throwaway mocking line in the book and far too shallow, even for me. In the book Jane chides Lizzie who then becomes more serious in her explanation. All of that is missing in the films. At the book's end, Austen takes the reader into the future and describes the closeness that remains between Lizzie and Jane's families, and the continued care needed for their youngest sister and her unfortunate husband. All that is omitted from all the filmed versions of the story.Read full review
I absolutely love the novel. I have found other productions of the novel entertaining, but much abbreviated. While this may appeal to some and for box office ticket sales it seems the only option. For those who know these characters in thier fullness or wish to truly know more about the novel without wishing to read it (shame on you), then this is version is for you. They may not be exactly how you or Jane saw these charaters when reading the novel but they are extremely close and the dialoge follows the novel almost word for word and the scenes follow almost line by line. It is a lenghty movie and I truly suggest true lovers of the novel to buy new on dvd,I choose to replace my dvd which was broken, cheaply for now w/used video. I hope this helps and that you at least watch this version if your unwilling to read the novel. In my opinion its the BEST. If you have seen this one and know of another that covers in depth the novel and all its characters better than this one, please let me know. I love to see new versions even though it will be hard to beat the BBC.Read full review
The casting for the roles in the A/E and BBC production of Pride and Prejudice, is the most accurate to date. The characters were brought to life so perfectly by the actors, that you, the audience, felt as though you had stepped back in time. The slithering, slimy Mr. Collins and the haughty Lady DeBurgh were so beautifully portrayed. The scatter-witted Mrs. Bennett,the scholarly Mr. Bennett and their many daughters, were faithful to the writings of Ms. Austen. Mr. Darcy was very, very ably played by Colin Firth.
I like the ability to find items I want at reasonable prices- I decide whether it is in my price range by bidding or passing it up. I wish everyone took money orders. I will not put my credit card online and do not utilize a debit card. I realize that is not the norm, but it works for me. I had wanted this series of movies for ages and could not justify the price of brand new. A pre-viewed set was fine. The lady I dealt with was very timely with her emails messages. My experiences so far have been very positive.
