I am a big fan of Jane Austen and all of her work. I have actually taken a college class that dealt with all of her work- all 6 novels, her novella, and her unfinished novel Sanditon. I have always had a soft spot for Pride and Prejudice, and LOVE the A&E version (and Colin Firth). The only thing I didn't like about this new movie is a few historical inaccuracies. These, however, are easily passed over and you can see how wonderful this movie really is. Both Keira Knightley and Matthew MacFadyen did an excellent job. I agree with someone who said in a previous post that they acted more along the lines with the ages of Elizabeth and Darcy. I really liked how they portrayed that sweet, soulful love that I understood Lizzie and Darcy to have. Also, that ending... what more could a P&P fan ask for? :)
