no pride, lots of prejudice.

this is long overdue... but before the vacation, marco & i went to see pride and prejudice (the new one with keira knightley and matthew macfadyen). i couldn't believe that they had beaten my beloved favorite book down to a non-sensical pulp.

i heavily dislike keira knightley. i didn't used to dislike her. i actually thought she was cute and sweet sometimes. but she has crossed the line and made elizabeth bennet a crazy, giggling nutcase. oh i'm sorry keira, but you are soooo not elizabeth bennet... there's so much i can say about this movie, but i recently read this article and it says it all, so why re-iterate?

i had to watch the BBC version over again just to get it straight in mind. for anyone thinking that the 2005 version of P&P was any good, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE shell out some dough and rent the 1995 BBC version instead! i have two words for you: COLIN FIRTH.

Ooooh, Colin Firth. Dreamy :-)
I too absolutely *love* him in P&P and have no desire to see the latest version. How could anyone else be Mr Darcy now???
