Movie Reviews of Pride and Prejudice - The Special Edition (A&E, 1996)
Movie Review: Favorite Film Version
Summary: 5 Stars
P&P is my all-time favorite book. This is the only version I've seen that's really captured what I love about the book. It doesn't throw it off by making Liz so much prettier than Jane (like the other movie versions) when vice-versa is true. All the great scenes are there, and they stay quite true to the book.
The wit and humour are spot on. The actors do a good job in portraying the tumult of emotions that are present in each character... the confusion, the hurts, the denial of emotions, the desire, the disappointments....
If you're doing a book-report and don't have the time to read the actual book, this is the best version for you.
If you love the book, you've probably already seen this version on A&E and are just trying to buy it for the best price. Just wait for the next holiday and justify the purchase that way.
Movie Review: Pride and Prejudice
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved this Jane Austen the best. The cast for this was tremendous. Any "romantic" would enjoy this DVD Movie Review: PRIDE AND PREJUDICE
Summary: 5 Stars
I LOVE IT. NO REAL SEX, NO BLOOD, NO HORRORS, JUST A BEAUTIFUL LOVE STORY. THE ACTING WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD, FACIAL EXPRESSION WAS A BIG PART OF THE ACTING. THE WORDS TELL THE STORY BUT THE ACTING MAKES YOU FEEL YOU ARE A PART OF IT.

Movie Review: The Best Pride and Prejudice
Summary: 4 Stars
This is one of the few book to movie productions I have seen that have actually got it right. Because it was a miniseries, they were able to put everything that was in Jane Austen's book into this film. Colin Firth is the best Mr. Darcy I have seen in a film. He gets the character so well, and was able to portray it truthfuly. All of the other actors did a great job too, and the locations in which everything was filmed was perfect. It is worth watching this over and over.Movie Review: I love it!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this adaptation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. I never liked Colin Firth before I saw this 5 hour miniseries, but now I love him, too. He played Mr. Darcy to perfection. Jennifer Ehle is very good also, as Elizabeth. I love that the screenplay stays very close to the book, both in dialogue and sequence of events. Not the case in all Pride and Prejudice adaptations. It doesn't feel 5 hours long. I've watched it more than once in the same day. A little extreme, I suppose, but I do love it that much. Not to take away from the Keira Knightley feature film at all, which is also very beautifully done and well acted, but this is the quintessential adaptation of Pride and Prejudice.
