[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The overwrought melodrama of the Keira Knightley version is more suitable for a Charlotte Brontë novel than Pride and Prejudice. She was more measured. More genteel. Like the 1995 BBC version. [/quote] Lizzie in the Firth version was cold, flat, boring, and unlikeable. Zero passion. Firth was uncharacteristically flat, too. [/quote] Have you actually read the book?[/quote] Yes. #privateschool Listen: books are open to interpretation—particularly when adapted to the screen. I’m baffled by everyone commenting that the bbc one is better because it’s essentially a bland reading of the book. Did you read the book? Were you looking for any hint of passion? Most people want to see human emotion and passion. The Firth version seems very transactional. Heck, Ehle says she fell in love once she saw his estate. [/quote]
