Summary: Pride and Prejudice DVD - Wonderful version of a classic
Comment: This is a fantastic version of the film. Collin Firth is wonderful to watch and convincingly arrogant, yet caring and sexy. The other actors are all funny and believable in their roles. A must buy!

Summary: Really Great!
Comment: I love this miniseries! I hadn't read Pride and Prejudice prior to seeing the movie, but when I finally did get around to reading the book, I couldn't believe how accurate this movie was to what was in the book. In my opinion, that very rarely happens and it's great that they were able to recreate the book perfectly into a movie! In addition to the recreation, the acting, setting, costumes, and everything else I felt was just great. A&E and BBC did a great job at capturing everything perfectly. Every time I watch this movie, I hate that it has to end. I have yet to see any other versions of Pride and Prejudice, so I have no other versions to compare this one to, but I am sure that none of the others would do this version or the book justice

Summary: Very good version
Comment: While this is quite a bit longer than any movie (for it is a television mini-series), it was done so well! Plus, any British television lovers would find this very agreeable.

Summary: Perfection
Comment: I was very impressed with the speedy delivery, I received my copy within 5 days (I'm in Johannesburg, South Africa)of payment. It's just awesome! I've watched it four times already and it's hugely popular with my family. I'll soon have to order another copy for myself so I won't be inconvenienced.

Great work!

Summary: Best Video Version of the Book Ever
Comment: This is an excellent version of Pride and Prejudice. Follows the book closely and does not omit huge sections to save time. Colin Furth is Mr. Darcy and Jennifer Ehle the perfect Elizbeth. Well worth owning if you are a fan of Jane Austin.
