Title: Darcy may be stiff, but that's just one way to play him
Review: This is still, by far, my favorite of the three main versions of P & P available. I like the acting in this one, for the most part, much better. As said by another reviewer, Elizabeth Garvie makes the perfect Eliza Bennett. One thing about E. Garvie though, it was lamented in another review that she had not done much other acting. In fact I can name at least one other thing that I have seen her in: an episode of Fairy Tale Theater called "The 12 Dancing Princesses", a series that played on PBS about 10 years ago. I don't know if it is still available, but worth checking out.With regards to the other acting, I liked the portrayal of Mrs. Bennett much better, and also the portrayal of Mr. Collins. The one doesn't need to seem so disagreeable, and the other, not so slimy (comparing to A&E version)
Is the review positive or negative?
