Pride and Prejudice - The Special Edition (A&E, 1996)
The timeless themes of love and marriage in Jane Austen's superb romantic comedy "Pride And Prejudice have captured readers for generations; the novel has sold more than 20 million copies and has never been out of print. Now, A&E and the BBC have brought this beloved classic to life in a compelling production directed by "Upstairs, Downstairs'" Simon Langton. This stunning production captures all the celebrated beauty of the English countryside and its glorious, stately manors. It features lavish costumes and an exquisite soundtrack from noted composer Carl Davis. "Pride And Prejudice" is the story of the lively and rebellious Elizabeth Bennet, one of five unmarried daughters living in the countryside of 19th century England. In a world where obtaining an advantageous marriage is a woman's sole occupation, Elizabeth's independent manner threatens her family's future. Will her romantic sparring with the mysterious and arrogant Darcy end in misfortune - or will love's true nature prevail? more

Jane Austen would be proud. This adaptation is wonderful!
This series is simply amazing. It is witty, well acted, and completely keeps your interest over the many, many hours. Mr. Collins is repulsive, just as he should be. Oh, and Colin Firth is simply wonderful as Mr. Darcy.If you like period pieces, buy this series. I own it and have watched it many,...

What's not to love?
I imagine most purchasers of this dvd collection have already seen this version, and love it. The 120-page companion book is fun to read, and has lots of details and pictures.My only complaint is the way the dvds themselves are held into their book. The discs are each slipped halfway down their...

The Gold Standard of Austen Films
I bought this dvd set to replace my bulky and worn out VHS set which I've had since I ordered them from A & E back in the day. The dvd version looks nice with sharp, clear colors and a wider screen image. I just think this is the closest to perfection any Austen adaptation has come. The movie...

AWESOME
This is well performed. Colin Firth is superb as Mr. Darcy! You literally feel his snobbery. Then you change with his character. This is an awesome rendition of Jane Austen's book. The best by far!

Jennifer Ehle has same pinched smile on her face for hours!
I think I'm the only person in the world who didn't like this version of P & P because of the annoying look on Jennifer Ehle's face for hours on end. She wore a contemptuous, pinched, pursed, stick up the behind little smile in EVERY scene! It was like that squinty-eyed tight smile that Renee...

Beautiful film with great actors, and for true Jane Austen fans: it follows the book!
Unlike the modern version with Keira, this BBC version follows the novel diligently and tries to capture the true spirit of the times. Jane Austen would be proud!! :) And Colin Firth fulfills the role of Mr. Darcy with incredible nobility and charm. A true white knight!

Both my husband and I love this movie and have viewed it many times. We never get tired of watching it. The actors/actresses are excellent and the character development is superb. Great casting and location. We would recommend this movie to just about any adult.
