Pride and Prejudice

The version I am reviewing today is the one done for A&E.  This version stars the handsome Colin Firth and pretty Jennifer Ehle.

I own this on DVD and I watch it at least once a month.  I love this version.  When the opening music chimes and Mrs. Bennett starts shrillingly talking I smile.  The direction of this piece was super.  I love this movie.

There has been a recent Pride and Prejudice done staring Kira Knightley, that movie captured the essence of the book but left out tons of juicey detail that this version I am reviewing has.  

If you are a Jane Austin fan, pick this one up.  Pride and Prejudice is a good movie.
