Disturbing
I'm a true Jane Austen fan....have read every book many times over and watched every BBC production. I was completely put off by the sight of Anne Hathaway's thong underwear showing through her cotton nightgown in the candlelight. Am I only one disturbed by this? For me, this was like reading a huge type-o in a pretty good book. It stopped me dead, I couldn't enjoy the rest of the movie and it's the only thing about the film that stands out in my mind. I'm pretty sure that's what editing is for...but maybe this movie's editors didn't know that it was extremely unlikely that ladies wore thongs in Jane Austen's day.
