I've seen two other movies based on Jane Austen novels. I abolutely loved them, so of course I had to see this one. Within the first 20 minutes of the film, I was mesmerized. Greer Garson pulled me in and made me beleive she WAS Lizzie. And Laurence Olivier! What else can I say, except that he's the greatest actor of all time, and they casted him perfectly in this movie. And all the rest of the actors/actresses were superb in this film too. After I watched this film 3 times I HAD to read the book. When I did, I saw that, though it was a little altered, the film had captivated the full essence of the book. The events were a liitle mixed up in the movie, but all in all, this movie was a great adaptation of the book. I think Greer Garson and Laurence Olivier should've both gotten an Oscar for this film. I would also HIGHLY reccomend this film to every Jane Austen fan in the World!
