Very Disappointing!

Rating: 1/10 (18 December 2005)

This is a dreadful and dreary rendition of a splendid and cherished classic.
The photographer seemed not to be able to give his viewer the whole scene, but rather one boring close-up after another forcing his viewer out of the story. Numerous lines were mumbled and spoken by actors or actresses with their backs to their audience. The close-up of the heavy balls of the pig gave the final credence to my decision that the production was a poorly made sham of Austen's beautiful story.
It appeared that the director and photographer were attempting to show off themselves rather than Austen's timeless tale.
The A&E production with Colin Firth is far, far superior to this D-grade attempt at this classic.
