A wonderful romance (especially for teenage girls)

Takes place somewhere between 1811-1820

An excellent movie, well written and well produced

Based on the book by Jane Austen

The Bennet family: Mr and Mrs., Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Katie, and Lydia

Daughters goal is to marry well (in reality the mother’s goal

There is a ball where Mr. Bingley falls in love with Jane and Elizabeth meets Mr. Darcy who she doesn’t like.

Jane catches a cold so forced to stay at Netherfield with Bingley

Elizabeth stays with Jane and Darcy realizes his attraction to her

The Bennets return to their home and Mr. Collins arrives and maries Charlotte Lucas (Elizabeth’s best friend)

Then Mr. Darcy and the Bingleys leave town and provide no further contact

Elizabeth visits Charlotte and Mr. Collins in there new home and meets Lady Catherine. Mr. Darcy and Coronel Fitzwilliam are with Lady Catherine

Elizabeth finds our it was Darcy who led Bingley away from her sister

Darcy proposes and is rejected

Elizabeth goes with relatives on vacation to Brighton. Lydia vacations in London

Lydia runs away with Mr. Wickam Darcy apologizes to Elizabeth, finds Lydia

and pays for her marriage. Mr. Bingley returns to Jane and marries her Elizabeth changes her mind about Darcy

and marries him That’s the jist.

The director and screenwriter did not put Mr. and Mrs. Hurst in the movie. Mrs. Hurst is the other Bingley sister who was always with Caroline Bingley. They kind of made Caroline and Mrs. Hurst one in the same, and got rid of Mr. Hurst all together.

If Jane Austen had thought her character not important, she wouldn’t of created them.

Accurate Inaccurate

Man not seen playing a pianoforte

Women trained in arts admirable (Mr. Darcy speaks of this)

Costumes Houses

Mary carrying sheet music to a ball

An Italian song sung in English

The lighting of the rooms. (too bright for candles)

Accurate Inaccurate

Languages Arranged Marriages Marriages for

convenience

Dance couple order What dances should

have been danced to Social equality (the

director tries to portray more than is there)

Many historical accuracies

But also historical inaccuracies

Great movie Well made Would recommend this

as a chick flick Shows what a long way

“love” has come in its importance in our world

Helps current watchers to understand how little power women truly had
