[quote=Anonymous]Isn't the A&E version a re-airing of the BBC version? I think it's weird to be so dismissive of the 2005 film and then not properly attribute the earlier series. Beyond that, Mr. Collins is quite contemptible from the perspective of being very status driven. This is something Lizzie is definitely not, though part of her courtship with Darcy involves realizing the ways in which status matters at least at that time. P&P is a difficult book to pin down, because it has so many layers upon which it can be interpreted. I actually appreciated the 2005 film for bringing the economic issues discussed in the book more front and center. It's an unusual focus for screen adaptations of the book, but I think it was well done.[/quote]
