Title: Simply dreadful!!
Review: I could not even finish episode one! I have seen many versions of P&P; the very first being the 1940 Greer Garson, Lawrence Olivier version which even though it is heavily edited and incorrectly costumed is so superior to this version I am surprised people here speak so highly of this version. Such dreadful acting; artificial, overdone and unnatural. Mrs. Bennett is NOTHING like the character in the novel at all, nor is Mr. Bennett.UGH maybe if I had seen this before all others but I really think if I had I might never have even read the book at all. The only reason I give even two stars is the costuming is quite good. Too bad I cannot say the same for the acting!Even being able to watch it for free as an Amazon Prime member cannot induce me to finish this...simply dreadful.
