About this product

Product Information

This version of Jane Austen's fiercely beloved novel has the daunting task of living up not only to the classic book, but also to the excellent 1995 miniseries of the same name. Yet 2005's PRIDE & PREJUDICE is up to the task, thanks to lively pacing, a witty script, an excellent cast, and clever direction from British newcomer Joe Wright. The surprisingly still-relevant story follows the five Bennet sisters as they deal with suitors and love, as their mother desperately schemes to marry them off advantageously. Sweet-tempered beauty Jane (Rosamund Pike) develops feelings for the equally amiable and extremely wealthy Mr. Bingley (Simon Woods), but forces conspire to keep them apart--while Lizzie (Keira Knightley) finds herself first appalled by, but gradually drawn to, Bingley's aloof, intelligent, and socially awkward friend, Mr. Darcy (Matthew MacFayden). The movie, at just over two hours, is forced to cut and condense a number of the book's subplots, and at times it tries to heighten the drama of certain scenes. But, for the most part, it's as faithful to the spirit of the original as time and cinematic convention allow.The tremendous supporting cast includes Brenda Blethyn as Mrs. Bennet and Donald Sutherland as her wry, withdrawn husband; Jena Malone as teenage twit Lydia; Judi Dench, effortlessly haughty and imperious, as Lady Catherine de Bourg; and Tom Hollander, who steals every scene he's in as the ludicrously pompous and awkward Mr. Collins. The movie's script, adapted by Deborah Moggach, manages to be proto-feminist without becoming anachronistic--and, like the novel, it is incisive about the class politics and gender inequalities of the day.

The best version ever
I knoe that the lead character isn't supposed to be beautiful, and who's prettier than Ms Knightly, but she plays her role perfectly, and with an excellent supporting cast. You won't want it to end.

To claim "Best picture of the year" is humbly an understatement!
How could one not love this movie? I saw it a few years ago on TV and have been watching it every time that it's aired since. The story takes the veiwer back to a time of gentry and common folk and sweeps it up into intrigue of love and dispair. The cast is excellent in potraying thier roles and the director cleverly blends in the scenery and music that time has lost. I now am happy to say that I have a copy... Am I a true romance fanatic? Absolutely not!!! This is the ONLY romance DVD in my collection! I can't imagine parting with it! I bought one other version of this movie; and was very dissapointed to discover that I had purchased the wrong one! This version is excellent and potrays the characters beautifully! Jane Austen would be proud to have her story brought to life in such a dramatic and memorable manner!Read full review

Jane Austen's masterpiece well done on film.
I really liked this movie and it did the book justice. Donald Sutherland is subtly superb as the father and head of a household of women. I loved him in this. It is a wonderful love story and a look into that period of history.

Pride and Prejudice (2005) dvd
This is one of my favorite movies ever. The characters, plot, setting, and dialogue are perfect for the Jane Austen novel. It is extremely close to the book, and any liberties taken fit wonderfully.
