Jane Austen is NOT Emily Brontë

Rating: 3/10 (4 March 2006)

Although some of the imagery and a part of the interpretation was OK. The movie as a whole was horrible. Some of the scenes reminded more of Wuthering Heights than Pride and Prejudice. The 1995 adaptation by the BBC was and is incontestable. The new version is not in any way making right for the subtleness of Jane Austens writing. All the intrigues in the movie are thrown to the viewer without any thought of showing a deeper understanding of the novel. The characters have been made flat and utterly boring.
The film in itself completely lacks SUBTLENESS and is no way near as good as the 1995 version.
