When I watched this version of the Austen classic prior to packing the DVD away for a move, I assumed ahead of time it would stay nestled behind the Colin Firth version as my second favorite adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. Now, however, pending my watching the other version again, this might indeed be my new favorite. Not due to any major differences in acting ability or in the writing, but rather for the way it nails down the little things, the stuff I may not have noticed the first time or two I watched it. One simple example is of the portrayal of Mary, one of the servants in the Benn…

**Overall, it's a good adaptation, even if it's not free of mistakes and problems.** I believe that “Pride and Prejudice” is one of the most transported English novels to film and television.

You can't help but feel sorry for poor old "Mr. Bennet" (Donald Sutherland) in this drama. He is married to a domineering wife (Brenda Blethyn) and has five, yes - five daughters! They are upper-middle class, gentile and well-to-do but have a problem. The laws of inheritance insist that upon his death, their home shall pass to a distance cousin so it's important that the girls make as best a way in life for themselves as they can. That might be simpler for the beautiful "Jane" (Rosamund Pike) but for the others. Well there's the girlish "Kitty" (Carey Mulligan); the tomboyish "Lydia" (Jena mal…
