Film Review of Pride and Prejudice

The choice of actors in this edition is commendable, which is very close to the illustrations in the original edition of Pride and Prejudice, and is almost entirely based on the illustrations. Especially the images of Darcy, Collins, Mrs. Bennet, Mrs. Catherine and Miss de Bourgh (beautiful, elegant but morbid); The sisters in the class are also good, and Charlotte is gentle and rational, reaching the point of being almost beautiful. Lady Catherine and Darcy are really alike when they look serious.

Elizabeth in this version is the gentlest and most refined (when she hates Darcy, the most incisive sentence is: "I hope Mr. Darcy can marry Miss De Bourgh, so that Lady Catherine can be his mother-in-law!" ), humorous, reserved and introverted, but soft outside and rigid inside, gentle implies self-esteem and keenness, profound thoughts and frequent self-reflection; Elizabeth rejected Darcy's proposal for the first time. After reading Darcy's letter, she had a deep thought, saw her vanity clearly, reached an epiphany, sublimated the soul of the character, and her feelings for Darcy naturally changed from then on.

Darcy shows the characteristics of arrogance and inhumanity, and also shows his concern for Elizabeth. This kind of worry is really puzzling. I can't think of the reason, but imagine that if he shows a little affection, he will be discovered and discussed by all the geniuses described in Pride and Prejudice.

This version better embodies the sisterhood among the five sisters in the class. In contrast, in the 95 th edition, Elizabeth only loves her sister and is more mean to other sisters. Although Jane is not as beautiful as a fairy, her manners are particularly elegant and beautiful, especially when she first met Mr. Bentley, she was affectionate and polite and described in detail.

Collins plays the role of a ridiculous person, but he doesn't bear a grudge against Elizabeth. He is still a gentleman. Charlotte and Collins also have a husband and wife, though out of desperation. Miss Bingley is petite and elegant. She inadvertently reveals a sharp snob, is loyal to Mr. Darcy, and sometimes ridicules each other. There is friendship between them. What might have happened later if Elizabeth hadn't intervened.

Lady Catherine is a beautiful but formidable lady, so Elizabeth's arrogance in fighting her is more valuable. But in the 95th edition, she is a useless old lady, who was defeated immediately after quarreling with Elizabeth, which has no obvious contrast with Elizabeth's politeness, modesty and fear of power.

Another feature of the version is that the soundtrack is very fresh and concise, especially the opening song and the ending song, which are full of quiet, beautiful, simple and melodious English country atmosphere, and I still often enjoy it now.

The main disadvantages of this version are: 1, the indoor scene is narrow, especially when dancing. 2. TV adaptation skills are not enough, there are too many inner monologues, and some dialogues even read out the psychological activities of the original characters. Darcy's letter has also been completely read, dragging its feet and being monotonous. After all, novels and TV plays are different carriers. This is the biggest flaw of the play. 3. Darcy's role is stiff, unnatural, too rigid, arrogant and serious, but not affectionate enough, and the change is not convincing enough. This defect is also fatal. This is the most elegant version of all the characters, only elegant, more elegant and more elegant. Even the frivolous Lydia is more elegant and beautiful than the later version. If Darcy and Bingley are dissatisfied with the Bennet family, they can only say that the upper class at that time was really picky. Elizabeth is sometimes beautiful, but her facial features are a little rough, and some angles are not very good, especially when she cries. However, in my mind, she is still the closest image to Elizabeth in all versions. Darcy is also handsome, but he still has defects (slightly thinner lips and shorter nose). Looking at it from different angles, you will find him handsome beyond imagination.
