Pride & Prejudice
rewatching pride & prejudice when you’re older is actually a completely different experience.
when i first watched it years ago, i thought it was just a romance, a cute one with amazing writing. now i realize it’s a story about assumptions, misunderstandings, judgment, and learning to truly see people for who they are.
darcy is one of the most awkward men i’ve ever seen on screen and yet somehow every longing stare had me kicking my feet. bring back yearning. bring back pining. bring back men who know what they want and aren’t afraid to say it.
my favorite thing about this movie is that nobody understands each other at first. everyone assumes, everyone judges, everyone gets things wrong. the romance only starts once they begin seeing each other clearly.
also, the hand flex should have won an oscar. iconic.
5/5.
