A Masterful Pride

Rating: 10/10 (16 June 2006)

One of the most enduring adaptations of a Jane Austen novel ever filmed. This an outstanding adaptation of her premiere novel & is superbly brought to life by an outstanding cast & film frew. While not the equal of the 1996 BBC version, this is sill an excellent film ~~ visually superb with wonderful screenplay that does not lose sight of the central thesis of the Austen novel. Ms Knightley gives her best performance to date: enchanting,captivating, & lively. The supporting cast is excellent ~~ especially Donald Sutherland as Elizabeth's long-suffering father. If you loved the BBC adaptation, you will definitely enjoy this cinematic tour de force.
