after all the hype i have hear about the jane austin novel and different film version of the book i find myself very disappointed with the movie . i have expect a classic drama but that be not the case . first of all let me preface my review with the fact that i love old movie and particularly mystery and drama and but not female orient movie . this probably make a huge difference and so take my review with a large grain of salt . i think the acting be a bit over the top and but that be very common in movie of this era . june allyson be good a jo but i find every sister to be stereotypical and form driven . there be no surprise or overly dramatic moment . i hate write negative review and but the movie leave me very cold . it have always be my intention to read the book and but after this that seem unlikely . the only warm story line be between the old gentleman and the young sister and that be a very welcome bright spot in an otherwise disappointing view experience . again there be others who love this movie and i be just not one of them .
