Pride and Prejudice

Finally finally got around to watching this. I must admit I have a loyalty to the 2005 film, but I really did love this. To my surprise I was not missing Knightley and Macfayden as much as I worried I would. Though I think I still favor my 2005 beauties, I loved Firth and Ehle as their respective leads and enough to not feel like I was missing out on the portrayals I was used to! Surprisingly or maybe unsurprisingly the two performances I really missed were Rosamund Pike’s Jane and Donald Sutherland’s Mr. Bennet. I suppose this review is really just a comparison but all this to say I really did enough. Curious to see where the upcoming adaptation will take things. Jealous I’m not in it.
