Pride and Prejudice

[pozorvlak]

I've just been watching the film of Pride and Prejudice (the one with Kiera thrice-Knightley as Lizzie), and had rather a shock when I realised that Mr Bingley was being played by someone I went to school with! I think he may even have been in my English class when I read the book for GCSE...

It's surprisingly weird watching him on screen - partly not having seen him for years, but mostly seeing someone I know in an actual film. Not at all like watching a friend on stage.

Anyway, he's a nice chap, so it's good to see he's doing well...

i've got it on dvd if you want to watch. i think its very true to the book... but i am aware i am in the minority. my problem with colin firth is that he was so consistently fit all the way through, whereas matthew macfadyen actually repulsed me at the beginning but was super-hot by the end. if its all about the darcy, the film has to win. not even gratuitous lake scenes can win me over!
