The reason why Lizzie glossed over Mr Darcy’s confession that he loves her is that he also insulted her status and her family. Basically saying “even though your family is embarrassing and you’re poor and i broke up your sister’s and Bingley chance. it goes against my nature to love someone like you but I still love you so maybe marry me?” Like nah dude. Lol
Ngl Lizzie's a bigger person than I would've been. I would've blacked Darcy's eye 🤣
"like nah dude" is the best put down I've seen today
lol, boys will be boys, right? talk about being awkward...but hey, at least he was coming from a genuine and honest place, which hasn't always been the case with men chasing women.
Plot twist: he did wrong insulting but DARCY IS RIGHT ABOUT HER FAMILY 🤣🤣🤣 MY GOD... SO EMBARASSING
@@santangelogaia19 I thinks it was that crack about her dad that was the last straw.
The way she held him accountable rather than simply to accept his proposal will set the standard later in their relationship, he will treat her more seriously/respectfully when other difficulties arise bc he knows she won’t tolerate nonsense. Good boundaries. Men and woman should practice boundaries more.
I think you missed a lot of points in the movie. Mr. Darcy judged Lizzie’s family especially after the ball, where their mother loudly said that an advantageous marriage was the goal, and considering he and Mr. Bingley had money, was concerning. Back then, women needed to get married because when the male head of the household dies, they need to be able to have a husband because women could not own land.
Lydia running away could have DESTROYED the family’s reputation and would have ruined the chances for any of the women to get married. Mr. Darcy paying for the wedding made it seem like they “eloped” instead of what it really was, and enables the Bennet family’s reputation to keep itself untarnished.
There's also the period detail of the Bennett family's estate being entailed. I don't think that still happens under modern laws, so a lot of audiences miss it in this story. It means that Mr. Bennet doesn't get to pick who he leaves his property to when he dies. It's bound by law to go to the cousin, Mr. Collins, of all people. If Mr. Bennet died, his wife and daughters would get nothing - no land, no money, nothing. Under entailment, even if the Bennetts had a son, Collins would still inherit the property. That's why Mrs. Bennett was so crazy to get the girls all married off as quickly as possible. When Mr. Collins showed up to marry one of the Bennett daughters (the only two old enough being Jane and Lizzy), he was basically doing them a favor. So it was a disaster when Lizzy refused him and he married Charlotte Lucas instead.
@@jenfries6417 "Under entailment, even if the Bennetts had a son, Collins would still inherit the property. "
Huh? No... the son would inherit if there was one.
@@jenfries6417 almost perfectly correct, except the purpose of entailment is to see the estate passed to the nearest MALE relative. In this case it was Mr Collins. If the Bennetts had a son then their son would have inherited instead :)
woman could hold land in a way. however as they married, the land would become their husbands to run. lady Catherine's daughter for example, is set to inherit her land. Now the bennetts house is set under what was called an entail. A entail was a sort of will set up that was unbreakable in an way to keep land (i.e. meaning social status) from falling apart. Land under an entrail couldn't be sold off, it meant a familied member had to own that land.
@@jenfries6417 if the Bennett’s had a son, it absolutely would have gone to him. It goes to the closest MALE heir. That’s the whole point. It was entailed to Mr. Collins because he was the closest male relative to the Bennetts.
Wow, considering you don't generally do rom-coms, pretty cool of you to jump right in to the deep end with this gem. Beautiful selection. Kudos to the person that recommended this 👍
Pride and Prejudice isn't a rom com. It's a period piece
You’re both right-it’s a period rom-com.
DUDE!!!! She did not "gloss pass" his declaration of love. He insulted her, her family, broke up her sister's relationship, and told her that she is lesser than him. Worst. Marriage. Proposal. Ever. #NoGameToSpeakOf
1. Insulted her family: her family is AWFUL AND EMBARRASSING AS SHIT
2. His advices for Bingley were done with the best intentions and yes, he did wrong, but at the end still is Bingley's fault... I mean he is not a puppet
@@santangelogaia19 You missed the point. It was a shit proposal. If some dude insinuated that he was belittling himself because he loved me, that he "liked me against his will, against his reason, and even against his character", he might very well get slapped.
Something that truly made Darcy attractive and such a solid romantic character is because the moment Lizzie rejects him, he drops it. When he initially proposes to her in the rain, and they have that back and forth argument, there _was_ a moment (like you said). He wanted to kiss her and he sees that she's also leaning in, but he still pulls way; apologizes, and leaves. It says a lot about who Darcy is and where his morals lie. Lizzy made it very clear that she didn't want him, and instead of doing what he wanted to do anyway, Darcy chooses to listen and respect her wishes. He took what she said seriously and respected her as a person.
He does not wordlessly worm his way into her life and force her to change her mind or get pissy about her rejection. He sets out to fix his character in her eyes, cuz frankly she had him deeply misunderstood, but he also makes it very clear that this isnt for the sake of pursuing her.
The fact he saved Lizzie's family from scandals and reunited Jane and Bingley really shows us how much he loves her because he had no obligation to do it and even did it without expecting something in return
1:32 Back then, women couldn’t choose personality. They chose money - getting married was entirely an economic choice 99% of the time. They didn’t have the luxury of choosing their husband. You took what you could get in those times to ensure your family could eat.
Except Lizzie doesn't follow what her comment suggests. She cannot bring herself to accept Mr. Collins, the practical choice or Mr. Darcy, who would be the wildest dream choice financially but has insulted her by insulting her family (although they deserve it).
@@HuntingViolets Except, of course, individual people sometimes buck tradition or common sense for a variety of reasons. That doesn't mean women weren't put in a position where marriage was more economic than emotional.
@@batkat0 I didn't say it was. I was responding to "Back then, women *couldn’t* choose personality. They chose money" -- perhaps *most,* although there were, apparently, many love matches in this era (perhaps with people more of similar status or wealth -- not sure yet). But, anyway, to say "couldn't" when we are discussing an admittedly fictional story where someone does, at least merits a response about the character.
“I’m twenty-seven years old. I’ve no money, no prospects, I’m already a burden to my parents, and I’m frightened” Same.
I felt that in my soul 🤣 like girl, same
That will be me in 6 years
So since always, men have preferred younger women
Never be afraid to be alone, build yourself up. Focus on your goals so that if anyone that may come into your life will only be so lucky to have someone who loves and respects themselves. You shouldn’t need anyone, you should choose to want someone.
Unpopular opinion: Make yourselves available only to strong, good men. Attract what you want to attract. The BC problem is real. Have kids. Grow together.
Something to understand. If the sisters don't marry, they pretty much will have to go out and find a position as a servant or governess (unlikely as they have no formal education), once the father dies. And the sudden death of a middle-aged man would hardly be unusual in those times, so things are urgent. If one or two of the sisters do manage to marry well, the others might luck into living their lives out in a spare room of the married sister if the husband has pitty. Those are pretty much the best circumstances they can hope for if they don't marry. They couldn't inherit, they couldn't own land. They couldn't work at anything that would let them stay anywhere near the lifestyle they knew. They were at the mercy of men. So don't judge too harshly if they seem to be gold diggers. They literally, legally could not go out and earn a decent lifestyle for themselves. It's fluffed up as kind of comical, but they actually were in desperate circumstances. It's why the mom was so upset when Lizzy turned down the first proposal. That would have been a setup that would have ensured her girls wouldn't be out on the street or in the poor house (he was the one that would inherit from the father). And Lizzy gave it up so quickly, even if for good reasons. It's like, do I hold out and try to find someone I actually like or risk my sisters (and maybe myself) living on the streets and all of the horrors that would entail at that time?
Perfect way of putting it. The Bennett girls were really not prepared for society at all. I mean them being pretty only would have lasted for so long. And they were only the prettiest girls in their area. Thier parents didn't have any money to send them to town where they would have come across girls who were beautiful and talented and accomplished and had money. Because they were landed Gentry, their parents used to have any money.
this is way over this guy’s head
I think it's a little mean to compare modern women, to women of that time. Back then women couldn't own land, and they couldn't inherit anything from their father that was entailed. So when the father died, they would face poverty, so of course they would like to marry well so they can have a safety net and so them, their family and their future children wouldn't starve. And of course finding a job as a woman finding a job to provide, provided very small wages. I find it really tasteless tbh, even if it is a light joke or an off hand comment. When people are blind to the struggles women faced, and just think it was superficialness, and that modern women are just as superficial it always annoys me.
There is an absolutely hilarious, poignant mini series called “Lost in Austen,” where a modern day woman travels back to the time and world of Pride & Prejudice (her favorite book) while Elizabeth Bennett steps into the present. The woman then tries to make Pride & Prejudice happen without Elizabeth. It is fantastic and obviously written by someone who loves this classic story.
i love that one!
I loved it.
These women have to marry for money because if they don’t they will die in poverty. There are no boys to make money for the house, the father is getting old and the women can’t get jobs. Everything depends on them marrying up, including their parents not dying in the poorhouse. If you don’t like how women need money for men, you need to look at why society makes it necessary for women to have to live like that.
As long as Mr. Bennet is alive the family has a generous income (one fifth of Darcy's.) As soon as he dies, the estate goes to Mr. Collins, so Charlotte will be set, but Mr. Bennet's widow and any unmarried daughters will be out of luck.
"Go in! Go in!" People have been saying that to this story for some 200 years, lol. Thanks for this great reaction. I love that Jane Austen nabbed another one. ;) This is close enough to the book, though it's not my favorite adaptation. I prefer the BBC miniseries version with Colin Firth as Darcy, but honestly I'll take any version of an Austen story I can get. Her romances are chef's kiss perfect, in my opinion.
Fun money fact: Mr Darcy's "50,000 a year" is worth about $5M USD per year today. You could be incomprehensibly wealthy without being a billionaire upfront - a testament to both money's declining worth in general, as well as to all the junk today's extremely wealthy feel they should -waste- er, spend their money on. Great movie choices, btw. Let your fellow reactors know that there are movies outside of the MCU and Star Wars franchises! Subbed, because you've surprised me with your selections about 3 or 4 times.
I think with the price of hired help nowadays & how little money buys you in this day that it would probably be closer to 30-50 million a year. There’s no way you could keep up estates like that today on 5M a year, especially when you consider he likely has several of them throughout the country.
@@goldenageofdinosaurs7192 yes i saw a website compare it that the 2000 pounds back then is around 6 Million today, so that makes Darcy's 50 000 a year into about 450 Million a year today... right? Did I do my math properly? lol
@@goldenageofdinosaurs7192 he wouldn't have had several estates.
It's £10,000 a year for Darcy.
It's also worth adding that Darcy's income comes from his estate, as he owns enough land that the farming of it and the rent from his tenants will generate enormous income. The huge house he owns does not, in itself, earn any money for him. As the 1800s progress in England, large estates like Darcy's became decimated by bad debts and death taxes which led to the wealthy selling off land in order to keep their lifestyles going. Eventually, many of them ended up with smaller estates that could no longer generate enough income to support the cost of running the house (someone like Darcy would have had dozens of servants at that time) and so those huge houses eventually got sold, which is how most of them ended up owned by private organisations that charge the public extortionate amounts to visit them and walk around. Very few of the original families still own and live in these huge properties. One example that does is the Percy family, who have owned Alnwick Castle for around 900 years and still live there to this day (despite them have thousands of visitors who pay to come and look round during the day)
15:46 "She don't mean that." I... think you may have misinterpreted the entire movie up until this point. She absolutely meant every word. She never had any designs on Darcy up until that point, and found him rude and... well, yeah. Rude. She wasn't "challenging" him to get him; she was making fun of him to soothe her own pride at the way he was treating her.
And that was before she found out what he'd done to Jane. She loves her sister, and got a front row seat to Jane's misery when Bingley just up and left with no real explanation. So when she found out that Darcy had basically convinced Bingley that Jane didn't really care for him, she _hated_ Darcy. And, as others have mentioned, the proposal itself was incredibly insulting.
"Going in" for the kiss at that moment would have been absolutely the wrong move, and would actually have shown that he thinks her grievances are less important than his satisfaction.
That's not to say that she's completely blameless here... she is the "pride" half of "Pride and Prejudice," after all. She made a quick judgment of him based on first impressions and didn't want to admit that maybe he wasn't as rude as she'd thought, and that maybe he was just shy instead, and she rushed to believe Wickam's side of the story because she didn't like Darcy and she liked Wickam. But the idea that she should have forgotten about her legitimate (in Jane's case) and mistaken (in Wickam's case) grievances just because Darcy proposed to her is just wrong.
I love this story and this movie. This is my second time seeing your reactions, the first was Ever After. The ballroom scene is my favorite as well. This is my pick-me-up movie. The cinematography and music are the absolute best. Thank you for reacting to this!
Dude, the movie is set hundrets of years ago, plus its a time where woman we're literally not allowed to work themselves. What is she supposed to say "I dont care if you cant feed me and our potential children honey, I'll gladly starve and watch them starve to as long as you are kind and funny" ?
Just like a man - that went straight over your head. She didn't "gloss over" some minor details in his proposal. He literally stood there and told her that he loved her even though she wasn't good enough for him - inferior in social rank, wealth, an embarrassing family (that part's true enough). Wow, I guess that you should be swept off your feet when a man proposes to you that beautifully. Throw in the fact the he talked Mr. Bingley out of pursuing Jane, who loved him and you've really got the biggest fail in love speeches in history!
Easy there. I'm a man and I realized how appallingly rude Darcy's proposal was when I first saw this film as a boy.
I feel you missed the entire meaning of this story. Times were different, very different then, & that means everything.
I’m a simple person; I see a Jane Austen reaction, I like. 👍
Good reaction video , and recognizing the quality of the filming and artistic cinematography.
This was a great movie. One of my top 20 or 30 of all time. The casting, the chemistry, and the filming is great, not to mention the story/plot is really good (a story of course that has stood the test of time, written two centuries ago). Loved this movie..and this comes from someone who will never has, and likely never will, touch a Jane Austen novel. I was really impressed by how much meaning they could pack into just one single sentence with that style of english back then. Makes me wish society still spoke as articulate. Everyone in the world probably sounds like Rocky Balboa to them if they could hear us today.
Lizzie had plenty to be mad about. He was rude at their first meeting. She adores her sister who is especially sweet and good. Darcy tried to ruin her relationship wit Bingley who Jane loved. During his proposal he said he loved her despite his better judgment and insulted her family. I would have been pissed!
I feel like none of these reactions address the fact that Col. Fitzwilliam is doing his best to talk Darcy up to Lizzie at the church! My man was just trying to tee his boy up!!
Also, she didn't gloss past "he loved her". She heard that she and her family were beneath him (they're actually in the same social class), and that he had broken up her sister and Bingley. Darcy was an absolute jerk here, and she was right to turn him down. She meant that, too. She meant that with her WHOLE chest. The ENTIRE thing! I'm going to give a little insight from the novel, but she was sure that marrying Darcy would mean she wouldn't ever be able to see her family, who she loved, again.
As for the kissing thing, at the time, it was very improper for unmarried couples to even touch for the most part, much less kiss. The fact that they had his final proposal be in a field alone while they were both half-dresserd would've caused a STIR at the time this was set. In the book (yes, again, with the book) he proposed to her again while they were chaperoning Jane and Bingley after their engagement.
If you liked this movie you might enjoy Sense and Sensibility (1995). I think Pride & Prejudice gives us a good example of how we are so quick to incorrectly view others through our own misconceptions & interpretations without knowing the whole truth i.e the big picture
Yes! I love Sense and Sensibility! One of my favorites!
@@AhavaMath Yes it's very good. Alan Rickman is just perfect in the film.
@@AhavaMath I always point to That book because it starts off with the brother willing to help them and by the end of the ride to get to their house he gives them like nothing. His wife talks him out of everything. Like how crazy is that but that's what happened and it's what could happen very easily. They were lucky too. This is also kind of hilarious. She just breaks down everything he wants to give to his sisters and talks him out of giving it. Then it's like oh they're probably going to get married so really you don't even need to give them anything.. yeah yeah yeah that's a waste of money You should just keep all of it for our son.
The only flaw in this version, is we don’t get to see Carol Bingley’s scorned face at the double wedding of Lizzy and Jane.
But I love this one .
Good gracious, your prejudices are coming through crystal clear with this reaction. She is not mad about nothing for half the movie, she didn't gloss past his proposal. You need to stop looking at it from a "I'm bitter about women in general" perspective lol
YUP
Women at that time could not inherit and were completely dependent upon the males of their family for support. It was very important to marry well in order to survive.
I love this movie... Great reaction!
I love this movie, but as tension filled as the proposal scene in the rain is, it was not done correctly. It was the wrong kind of tension. This version portrays him as awkward and nervous. However, originally he really is a complete asshole to her in this scene. He blatantly insults her entire family including extended that he’s never even met, degrades her station in life, calls her too poor to be worthy of him, and says outright how embarrassed he is that he likes her and laments how much shit he’s going to get for choosing someone so completely inferior. He says all this and then gets angry at the fact that she actually dared to refuse him. So when she does and he pushes her for her reasons, she rightly attacks his behavior as he’s presented it and it shocks him into rethinking his entire character.
The movie purposely softens Mr Darcy a bit. But the scene still makes it clear that his own prejudices and near-sightedness is worthy of Lizzie’s reaction.
I think the film had to change Darcy's characterization because they didn't have time to show the change to his character. That's why my late mother preferred the 1995 miniseries - they had enough screentime to avoid changing or cutting out major plot points.
No, Darcy is both arrogant and vulnerable. He's not a complete asshole. The book is about Lizzy's perspective in seeing Darcy. That's why she judges him as a jerk at the beginning. But actually, he's the other way around. He's proud and arrogant to his social life, but awkward in front of Lizzy at the same time. He's misunderstood. They judge towards each other. That's why this movie is the "only' version which has 'the most justice' to Darcy's character. He feels more human and realistic. He doesn't 'suddenly' change his behaviour, from an ass into an angel. His character development is depicted so well here. He changes his behaviour little by little because of Lizzy to better himself. That's how I interpret the book.
Your comment about how Lizzy was pouting after her friend married that adorably ridiculous suitor? She wasn't pouting for herself, she was sad for her friend and in deep contemplation/consideration about her own life in respects to the actions and traditions around her...and of course, "what to do about Mr. Darcy?". Really happy you liked this film!
It's so much more valuable watching someone watch a movie outside of their usual genre interests. The movie has to earn your enjoyment, be good enough to get past your initial boredom or dislike of the genre. Then if it really hooks it's claws in and makes you invested in the outcome, the payoff is all the greater.
I loved them dancing alone in the ballroom too.
They talk about money a lot because women cant earn money at that time
If you like a good period piece, Last of the Mohicans is a must!
I’m really glad you watched this but I think you misunderstood somethings..
This was not your usual fare so it was really entertaining watching a poster move outside the type of thing they usually watch. Great reaction, esp at the end: "they made us wait for that." Welcome to Jane Austen lol
I've been watching this movie all week, so I clicked instantly when I saw this! I wasn't sure you would like it, but I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Women like men for their personality but love them for their bank account...lol. Women worth their salt think about the future and security. Especially, as in P&P, if they had little or limited chance(s) to earn their own way and they couldn't own property. They were dependent on their family to support them if they couldn't secure a husband to do so. The idea that Lizzie refuses to compromise herself at great risk to the future welfare of her sisters and Mother was groundbreaking.
The quick zoom-in shots are cool in my opinion. Cuts the POV to another person quite abruptly.
Chapeau! you picked a Jane Austen film. This is a good edition. My personal favorite Jane A. filming is „Sene & Sensibility“ with Emma Thompson, Kate Winslet, Hugh Grant and Alan Rickman. Just in case you would give that genre another try.
Love being able to see people experience period dramas like this one for the first time. This is one of the best ever.
I really liked this reaction! Little fun fact, did you know Rosamund Pike turned down a role in Harry Potter to play the role of Jane in this movie?
I'm glad she didn't ruin an Harry Potter movie. I now like this version of P&P a bit better than I did before finding that out! The BBC version towers over this version though.
Absolutely fantastic reaction! You have officially become my favourite reaction channel, Sir.
Would you mind if I please suggest you keep whoever is making these suggestions as an absolute treasure? I am just loving the variety they bring to the channel. It feels like there is truly something for everyone, all of the movies are of excellent quality, and they are all approached with such fair open mindness. Great job!
YOUNG VICTORIA... Emily Blunt 👍
If you are not opposed to musicals, Bride and Prejudice is entertaining. It is a Bollywood version of Pride & Prejudice
I love that you do all types of genres on your channel !
The Original title to the book was called 'First Impressions' because both characters judged each other before knowing.
Lizzy isn't in a bad mood because Charlotte got engaged to Mr Collins after she rejected him. She is because she has high standards when it comes to marriage. That's why she would rather be unmarried than married to a man like Mr Collins. Given that she is considered almost as attractive as Jane she can afford such standards. The problem is that she first fails to see that Charlotte is considered rather plain looking. There are reasons that she is still unmarried at 27. Lizzy is disappointed in Charlotte at first that she agreed to marry a man like Mr Collins. But Lizzy quickly understands Charlottes reasons and "forgives" her.
Edit: glossed over to go back to something not even related? 😅 How is him destroying her beloved sisters happiness and presumably the life of a man he grew up with not related to her decision to not marry him? Would you marry a person who destroyed your siblings relationship or has shown cruelty towards someone who is almost as close as family? I would never marry such a person. Red flags everywhere.
Darcy is actually a great male role model. After Lizzy rejected him he doesn't pressure her to change her mind or shows that he didn’t take her rejection seriously (like Mr Collins did). He actually takes her words to heart. He explains himself while giving her the option to not "listen" to him (by giving her a letter instead of forcing her into a conversation). He leaves instead of forcing his company on her. He makes the effort to make up for his mistakes (by fixing what he broke between Bingley and Jane) and does everything in his power to save her family without even telling her to not appear like he did it to change her mind about him. In the book we also see that he tries to be more sociable. Only when he sees signs that Lizzys feelings regarding him might have changed he proposes to her again while assuring her that he would leave her alone if she still doesn't want him.
Look at how men are depicted nowadays in media. There aren't a lot of Mr Darcys anymore. For a couple of decades women are made to believe that it's romantic if a guy who was rejected "fights" for her until she finally loves him because he was so persistent. While showing no personal growth at all.
Lizzie says it wouldn't matter if he had warts with 5,000 a year but Darcy's (personality) warts make 10,000 not enough, so be sure you tell that to the women to whom you're telling the first part.
👏🏻👏🏻
GO IN! GO IN!
Elizabeth Bennett: the original “not like other girls” girl.
She's disappointed in Charlotte's choice, not in losing Collins.
16:16 was when I had to stop watching. Him completely disregarding everything going on and acting like Darcy destroying her sisters happiness isn’t related? I don’t understand how someone could miss the point that badly.
dude is immature as hell and has spent too much time ingesting red pill manosphere talking points. it’s painful to listen to.
I so appreciate your willingness to stay continually open through out the movie. You are really great at this. Enjoyed your review!
Me. Darcy saved Lizzy and Lydia's rep by paying Wickham's commission to marry Lydia or the family would have had a black mark and it would be hard to get them all married.
AWWW I LOVE P&P REACTIONS!!! Let me save this for later.
I have to add though, my parents had very little when they married but had friendship with sparks. The perfect combo. Respect and Romance. Communication and cuddling. Humor and Heart. Tenderness and Tenacity. God and Goals.
I livd the tension in the proposal scene. Shes yelling and ge almist leans in to kiss her and you see when he doesntbshe suddenly realized she actually wanted him too.
The UK version ended with Mr Bennett in his study and is all the better for it.
Lol loved you reaction! This is one of my beloved movies and I loved watching you react to it. :D
In those days respectable people would not have kissed before getting permission to marry. It was a no no even to touch the bare skin of another. That's why the hand touching when he helped her up to her carriage at his home was so shocking to her and so significant.
There are loads of versions of this story. This is this more cinematic version. There’s a longer more accurate version (bbc), a Bollywood version (bride and prejudice), a zombie version (pride, prejudice and zombies lol) etc
This movie is perfection. ❤
My fave book/movies. Loved your reaction. You've earned me as a subscriber. 😊
Loved your reaction! This is my #1 favorite movie, book, and also the mini series with Colin Firth. I've read the book 5xs, seen the movie at least 10xs, seen the mini series 4xs.
:)
Another good one is Sense and Sensibility. Both the movie and mini series are good. Another Jane Austen.
18:06 reacting as if he got caught too lolol
You should definitely check out Emma. 2020 it's a masterpiece of this genre and is incredibly historically accurate and written by the same author Jane Austen!
I don't know how one can not be laughing half of the movie. The mother is hilarious.
You have to understand the time period. Men and women were not allowed to touch much less kiss until married. The reason they kissed at the end is because they were married at that point.
The movie Bridget Jones is a modern version of Pride and Prejudice and it’s a pretty good take on it. You might also like the 1996 movie Emma based on another Jane Austen novel, also very charming. The movie Clueless is a modern version of Emma.
My all time favorite movie !! Ive seen it maybe 20xs , no joke.. I love seeing a mans true reaction to this...ive always wondered how vulnerable he would be.. Love this Reaction !! And i just Subed !!
Loved this! Thanks for doing this! More ROM COMS for Feb??? I endorse ever after, about time, and momma mia!
So glad you like the movie.
Kudos to you for watching a romantic film based on a. Novel published in 1813 when it’s not a movie you would usually watch. Glad you enjoyed it. One of my fav films.
One of my favorite movies ❤️
Thank you for reacting to this, I loved your reaction.
Please consider 'Briget Jones Diary' next, this is a modernization of Pride & Prejudice, so if you're up to it, it would make a great Christmas season movie.
Important facts from the book that are subtle but missed in this movie..
Bingley’s sister wanted to marry Mr. Darcy . Lady Catherine wanted Mr. Darcy to marry her sickly daughter , his cousin.
Mr. Bennett understood that his daughters marrying who they loved was more important, because while he loved his wife , he understood that marrying someone for propriety didn’t make one happy. Mrs. Bennett was quite ridiculous.
My favorite book, I read it 4 times. 🥰
I like this movie but as a staunch Jane Austen fan it falls short because a lot is changed and they concentrate solely on the romance and skip so much of the brilliant social satire and insight.
Yes, that's on purpose. It is a simplified romanticized version of Pride and Prejudice, dare I say. That's why a lot of people after watching this movie are like introduced to Austen world, and any other period pieces. And it's good. Kuddos to Joe Wright.
Her sister is not “nothing.”
I love this movie... :)
I absolutely love Pride and Prejudice and its spin-off novel, Wickham's Second Attempt. I am hoping that someone makes a film of the latter! #WickhamMovie
I think I may have sleazy said this, but I’m one of those who cringes at the American add-on of the “Mrs Darcy…” scene.
Hope you watch Persuasion the 2007 film is pretty good
If you liked this movie I recommend watching the most recent Emma movie. I think it came out in 2020.
Thank you... I love having a man's prospective on these typ of movies.
If you love period peaces theres another classic that is a classic for a reason, and one fldone SO well but not often reviewed. The epic war-drama-romance the last of the mohicans. Dainiel day lewis is amazing in it. Its impisdible to disappoint with no natter what the audience is looking for. Would nake a great reaction piece.
“….didn’t know this was _A_ movie” . . . Uhhhh, it’s at least 20 (probably _way_ underestimating) movies. Period adaptations over the last 90+ years and modern adaptations over the last 30 years, at least.
Also, there are a few adaptations of this. The main ones (1940, 67, 80, 95, 2005) seem rlly good. Gotta watch the 67 version, along with the Dutch and Italian version, then I'm done.
I love this movie but it's not my favorite version of the story. 'Bride and Prejudice' from 2004 is wild, fun, and extra cheesey! Oh and it's also a musical! If you're into those kinda of things it might be worth a shot. Great video can't wait for the next one! May you always have Peace and Love ✌️💗
Hi. Happy New Year. Props to you for watching a period romantic film. I am sure that my husband wouldn’t watch this with me. He’ll be watching lots of football today.
You need to understand the rules of society back then, in order to truly understand this movie
Movies to also give a try... The Princess Bride (comedy/fairytale)... The Shawshank Redemption (drama with a great ending)... and Seven Samurai (drama/action by legend Akira Kurosawa).
Since you enjoy Pride & Prejudice so much I hope that you can check out Sense and Sensibility(1995).
I discovered you today (Schindler's List) and have binged. This is my sister's favorite version so I clicked. I just want to feed you. You make me feel like I have nephew over watching movies with me.
And you need to eat something.
Reminds me of the end of Sixteen Candles when they kiss on the glass table over the birthday cake
This movie adaptation of Pride and prejudice is definitely nowhere near the BBC 1995 mini series with Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle.
You should see Sense and sensibility! I think that's the better Jane Austen filmatisation!
Mr. Collins would not have been happy with Lizzie.
I suggest you watch Atonement it’s heavy but a great film
Yeah, same director as this Pride and Prejudice. Keira Knightley also play in both movies. Both are great movies. One is happy ending, the other one is tragic 🤭
Come on, why judge Lizzy for refusing to marry a guy who destroyed her sister's relationship!?
Mr. Darcy is a self absorbed man and also angry and disappointed in life. She finds that interesting.
