"200 years ahead of her time"? Hardly. It was all very much according to the confining upper class social norms and demands of those days. 'Chicklets' warning girls to stay virtuous until the right man would call on her.
@@brendabri Well, I'd think we'd had progressed somewhat meanwhile. In Austin's days a woman wasn't a legal entity. She could do very little without a man acting on her behalf. Thus 'marrying a rich widow' was the ultimate man-dream. She couldn't touch her own money without you, and you could spend her money without her being able to prevent that.
The director of this film, Joe Wright, has spoken about how he sought artistic composition with his shots. In particular, he mentioned being proud of the shot at 5:27. Every time I see it, I have to agree. It could be a painting, it's so gorgeous.
It always amazes me two roles Simon Woods played Mr Bingley and Augustus in Rome. They can’t be more different one cold cruel calculating and another sweet and charming
I remember watching this on its opening weekend and the auditorium was filled to capacity. When Bingley strode forward, momentarily paused, THEN kneeled there was a collective "AAAAAW!" from the mostly female audience! Then they burst into embarrassed giggles!
In the movie named “Becoming Jane”, her older sister asks her if she writes something new and she says “I write the story of two sisters getting married with two handsome, wealthy and loving men” at the time her sister lost her fiancé while she broke up with the man she loved. That’s why “Pride and Prejudice” was written for, solace for two sisters’ failed love life 🙁
I saw P&P in the movie theater; Mr. Bingley's wedding proposal was the only scene that I cried. Lizzy's heavy breathing upon seeing Mr. Darcy reminds me of my youth of when seeing my woman crush would put me out of breath.
I remember seeing this in theaters with my Mom and grandmother. I was 15 years old, and I loved it. I went home that evening, and started reading the book. I then read all of Jane Austen. This is my favorite adaptation of Pride and Prejudice.
That one glimpse of her twirling her hair tells you everything you need to know about the childlike character so close to the surface in a supposedly grown woman.
It's been so long since I ready the book that I forget a lot of the context around this scene. It is quite sweet. Looks like an interesting adaptation.
I suppose most people don’t mind the modern interpretation of Bingley’s proposal, but the book has it keeping with 1813 modesty of Bingley waiting for a quiet and alone moment rather than asking everyone to leave his presence to propose.
Yep. I have to tidy up so my house cleaners can clean. First world problems and too much stuff and uncomfortable clothing, and now bad manners of young people putting their shoe feet on airplane seats, even in business class.
There is one thing that is not clear to me: Mr Collins was initially interested in Jane, but his mother told him that she was practically promised. Why when Mr Bingley left Netherfields, Mr Collins did not ask for Jane's hand? (After all, Jane was "free" again).
Adoro quel periodo storico... La moda era così bella e femminile, inoltre lasciava le donne libere di muoversi senza corsetti e costrizioni. Successivamente, ahimè, è cambiato tutto e si è tornati ad abiti scomodi e pericolosi per la salute della donna.
Jane Austen made a book for daydreamers like you. I would suggest reading (or watching) Northanger Abbey. Come back to this comment section once you're done, I'd like your thoughts
@@sriana5136Honestly? 'Northanger Abbey'? My word! But doth not despair! For Austen wrote many other, finer books. As did her contemporaries like Mary Brunton.
@@_PJW_ That comment was for OP, but it wasn't a compliment. I suggested it for its plot. The naive protagonist let books rot her brain so now she constantly lives in her imagination. It took over how she saw reality. By doing that, she almost ruined a relationship with a great dude (ex: her accusation of her FIL). You'll see it still holds up today, like Booktok. OP wanted her bf to be like Darcy, a person of FICTION. Imagine having a partner who wishes you could be a fictional dude? That current you isn't enough, and never will be. You'd feel exactly the same shitty way if it was reversed. Can you imagine your bf saying he wished you were Naomi from Wolf of Wall Street because she's the hottest fictional woman ever? Course not. Now I like Jane Austen as much as the next person, but it's a story at the end of the day. Austen wrote romance books, yes, but before anything else, it was her method of communicating important life lessons to the youth. Girls were naive, especially around love/marriage because that is how society planned it to be. To skip the lesson altogether would be doing her a disservice. In this case, both Elizabeth AND Darcy were assholes, but changed for the better for the sake of being a good person.
I agree. This scene is an unmitigated mess, however it made me laugh so hard. Darcy is such a good friend that he play acts the scene out before going back a second time.😂😂😂😂

3:57 this is the funniest part of this sequence. The "Mr. Bingley" said by Darcy is just hilarious! Such precious friends.
Jane Austen was the MASTER of romantic comedy. 200 years ahead of her time, just imagine what else she could have written had she not died so young.

THE MASTER!!!
Jane Austen is a great writer writing timeless classics
"Everyone behave naturally and whatever you do, do not appear overbearing" says the most overbearing person in the room 😂
"Mary put that away at once! Find some useful employment." That line always cracks me up lol
I absolutely love when they get caught at the window the second time. The look on mom’s face😆😆😆
At least Bingley got his shit together at the end when it came to Jane.
And Ilove that it was dear Mr. Darcy who helped him pluck up the courage to propose to her.
She was seriously scary in "Gone Girl"
“Yes, a thousand times yes”
Double happiness!

I honestly never realized that....,in my minds eye, they are two utterly different personages. Great acting I guess.
Mesma coisa com a Rosamund Pike. Ela é tão doce e inocente em "Orgulho e Preconceito" e tão diferente em "Gone Girl"
Or his antagonist role in Penelope! He was so funny and charming in the complete opposite way in that movie.

Ah yes. Emancipation has come a long way. 😇
"Unmitigated and comprehensive ass". Love it! 😂
Such a refine sentence
if darcy had proposed like that in the first place, the movie would be half as long lol
@@juliasaraiva9146yeah. But the movie wouldnt be half as strong too! 😅
Why does he say that? About his own? Or hers?
@@lavatr8322 "I have been ....". You'll see it clearly in the clip. 🙂

Aww, I love “Becoming Jane” so much! 😍
Simon and Rosamund (Bingley and Jane) were a couple for two years at Oxford.
@@FYTFDMAYeah because Joe Wright the director was engaged to Rosamund during the filming
@@AbbyLeFleurwhaaaat really?
@normalgirlcvco Yes but something happened and they also broke off their engagement.
....and then he discovered that he was gay and that was the end of that!
@@ladydamiana6841He married a very rich man.
Mrs. Bennett's overbearing nature does more to unwittingly undermine these proceedings then she will ever know.
Haha women haven’t changed much 0:24 😂 we’re still the same and then scrambling to tidy when someone unexpectedly shows up
A large portion of young women now purposefully make themselves unattractive.

One of our best, female stories,❤

PIKE SHOULD BE IN EVERY TOP 10 BEAUTIFUL ACTRESSES
The actress playing the mother is the best of them all. Oscar performance 👌
Mrs. Bennett drowsily humming "Greensleeves", lol
That one glimpse of her twirling her hair tells you everything you need to know about the childlike character so close to the surface in a supposedly grown woman.
Bingley looks like he’s going to throw up lol
It's been so long since I ready the book that I forget a lot of the context around this scene. It is quite sweet. Looks like an interesting adaptation.
How is it in the book ?
I suppose most people don’t mind the modern interpretation of Bingley’s proposal, but the book has it keeping with 1813 modesty of Bingley waiting for a quiet and alone moment rather than asking everyone to leave his presence to propose.
Glad that Octavian finally managed to chill out.
they're both such soft warm souls 🥺💕
I really related to the part where mes bennets initiates the panics as the visitors were coming
Yep. I have to tidy up so my house cleaners can clean. First world problems and too much stuff and uncomfortable clothing, and now bad manners of young people putting their shoe feet on airplane seats, even in business class.
Thank you love both the main actors so much sorry don’t know how to spell their names🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
How dare they see ribbons.
La película más bella de todos los tiempos
One of my fave scenes of all time.
Crazy how Kiera Mulligan, Rosamund Pike, and Carey Mulligan are all in this film. Three lead actresses in multiple films. Jenna Malone is in this too.
rosamund pyke 😍
una de las peliculas mas bellas que he visto , me encanta
2:10 got me kicking my feet and all
Im pretty sure jane austens mom had a favorite child and it wasnt her
Love at movie 🎬 🎞 I buy it ❤❤❤❤❤😊
Amo esta pelicula es padrisima
My favorite movie
I loved that movie 🩵so romantic
❤loving the right person too be happy 😊

Mr Collins proposed to Charlotte by the end of the week that he proposed to Lizzy.
Collins was on the bullet train for marriage.
@@lisabellamy8424 Ok thank you. So the first one available after Lizzy
Love this movie ❤
Elizabeth’s hair really bothered me in this version. It’s like she couldn’t afford a comb,
I'm sorry. I don't think anyone can match Alison Steadman as Mrs. Bennett. This movie's version of her just feels so watered down by comparison.

The mother almost sabotaged it with all her chattering at the start that put him off his speech... Take note, over eager mothers!
Oh my lord! I shall have a seizure, I'm sure I shall.😂
What's with Bingley's hair?
I totally get this world; in fact, I still live in it. I don't like it. But, it's charming and familiar.
Funny how my wife prefers this than those latest film with stronger female. Tbh I do too, hehehe.
Hey! Mr Wickham brought his A Game and scored 15 large and a bimbo!
This was amazing I wish my boyfriend was like Mr Darcy then I might actually like him lol

@@sriana5136Hey guys just going to butt into the Convo here, I am the boyfriend in question and I took wish that I was more like Mr Darcy
Why did Octavian get here?
The made a mistake in the movie of having Mr. Bingley stutter during his proposal. Ruined the scene.
The mother non stop talking ruined it completely...
Ukr lolll but it's kinda make his proposal better
The mother was unbearable
😮🎉❤
Really? This Red Haired vacant expression distant cousin of Ron Weasley and Ed Sheeran lands one of the Baddest Blondes of all time? 😂
Don't like that adaptation.

Her teeth are quite large
shes british
This isn't 'Little Red Riding Hood', you know.
And?
Owo
how can people enjoy such slow paced cringy drivel?
Because not everyone enjoys instant gratification. You marry not the body but the mind, heart, and soul. I guess you wouldn't know that.
@@DibIrken hahahaha, you are either a hopeless female or a weird gay guy
You don't have to watch it if you don't enjoy it. Go back to watching car crashes and explosions.
the world needs more slow paced drivel
@@sliceserve234 not a smart one, eh?
Now that's a good sign 😍🤍🤍🤍 love it🤍 thank you for the good omen 🎉😌🙏
