Pride and Prejudice

Starring: Keira Knightley, Matthew Macfadyen, Brenda Blethyn, et al.

Product Description

Based on Jane Austen's beloved novel, the classic tale of love and values unfolds in the class-conscious England of the late 18th century. The five Bennet sisters -- including strong-willed Elizabeth (Keira Knightley) and young Lydia (Jena Malone) -- have all been raised by their mother (Brenda Blethyn) with one purpose in life; finding a husband. When a wealthy bachelor takes up residence in a nearby mansion, the Bennets are abuzz. Amongst the man's sophisticated circle of friends, surely there will be no shortage of suitors for the Bennet sisters. But when Elizabeth meets up with the handsome and -- it would seem -- snobbish Mr. Darcy, the battle of the sexes is joined.

Customer Reviews

Well done!

I really liked how they did this version, it is done quite well & well cast. I do think u have to know the story already to get the flow, and suggest reading the book. But it is a good story, I wish it had been a series with same actors so they could have gotten into the characters more. Buy the movie AND the novel.
