Title: Go for the earlier BBC version instead
Review: Thoroughly unsatisfying, despite the presence of the always spectacularly sexy Colin Firth. The major flaw here is the horribly miscast Jennifer Ehle as Elizabeth. She looks right, but is way too humorless, heavy, and grim in personality--all wrong for a character who wins the love lottery largely because of her sprightly wit and sweetness.In addition, Jane Austen's delicious dialogue is dumbed-down unforgivably in key moments. And the many minor characters who are supposed to offer piquant commentary on the money and love problems in this story are horribly mishandled. The actors are both weak and wrong, their scenes curtailed and stripped of meaning. This is Jane Austen done by people with NO FEELING for Jane Austen.The earlier BBC version with Elizabeth Garvey was superior in every way. And even without Colin Firth, ten times as romantic-- which is, after all, the whole point.
