Pride and Prejudice rules


Alright, I know that I am terribly behind in my exposure to films. This movie came out when we were right in the midst of our IVF cycles so I missed it. I've just recently gotten caught up on currents and am cycling back to see what I missed in the last... oh, two years. You'd think I just got back from a mission. ANYWAYS, I rarely, rarely see a movie more than once, and especially in the same year (unless I'm working on it). I've watched this movie five times in the past three weeks. I bought the soundtrack and even- I know, very ambitious- the piano music. I just can't get enough of these characters, the story, the way Darcy detested Elizabeth's weaknesses like her crazy family, and then did all that he could to help them out when they were stuck in a pickle. I loved this movie rendition- of course it cuts out a lot of story as all movies must in order to fit their 2 hr. time frame- but in some ways that really worked because the themes and the plot stuck out a lot more and I saw the story in a different way. Timeless, classic, to die for. I think I'm going to go watch it again.
