The first time I saw a movie adapted from a famous book, I didn't expect every line in the movie to be exactly the same as the one written in the book. When Lisie’s father told his wife in the movie that I have been listening to you mention your poor nerves for the past 20 years, I immediately found out the arrogance and prejudice I bought in elementary school, and then I watched the movie and read the novel. I found that every line is consistent with the original text in the book! Compared with the messy movies that are adapted from novels, this movie really respects the original work very, very much, and restores the original work very much.

Then, the costumes of each actor in the play are really very particular. It feels like the previous era. I haven’t seen the 2005 version, but I still feel that the 40-year version is more restored to the original, the 2005 version. It's a little too fashionable.

The whole movie is pretty good, but the scene where Mr. Darcy left after knowing that Lisie’s family was not well-educated made me very confused. Later, he didn’t apologize, Lisie fell in love with him, uh.

I don't know how to evaluate acting. I haven't reached the level of evaluating acting.

    There is no book interesting, it is a bit short, and many details are not explained clearly

Pride and Prejudice quotes

  • Lady Catherine de Bourgh: Mr. Darcy's sister, Georgiana, is a very accomplished musician. And, I, too, should have been a great proficient, if I'd ever learned.

  • Mr. Darcy: Oh, don't stop, Miss Elizabeth. That was charming!

    Elizabeth Bennet: Isn't that the right time to stop when people still think you're charming? If I went on, you might change your mind.
