A "Must See" for this Romantic Comedy!!

Rating: 10/10 (19 August 2001)

I enjoyed the movie, then went out and bought the book and sound-track. I think the character I fell in love with Mark Darcy. He was at first a "cold fish", but later as he revealed himself layer by layer, showed that he was a kind person, that loved his mother. (Whoever would wear those cute but totally unsuitable jumpers or ties that he gets for Christmas. hehehe)
His character reminded me so much of Fitzwilliam Darcy of Pride and Prejudice. It turns out that Colin Firth has played Mr. Darcy in the BBC TV series.
Interestingly, in the movie Mark Darcy possessed some of Mr. Darcy's characteristics - the aloof, snobbish trait, and then later (in the book) saves the day with his unselfish nature, assisting the heroine's family out of a bad situation.
