Hard to surpass the 95 classic version

傲慢与偏见,2005年新版。我知道它不会比95年Colin Firth版本(实际上这是个迷你电影型TV Series)更为经典,当然,服装更美丽了,彭伯利更华丽了;Miss Elizabeth Bennet由Keira Knightley出演,她很漂亮,比Jennifer Ehle漂亮很多,然而这个角色对她来说太稳重了些,她适合那些轻佻或者任性的角色,她保持她的招牌动作,比如很夸张的露齿咯咯笑,微微低着头用牙齿轻咬拇指,伸着长长脖子微微开着嘴唇,这些以往蛮性感的姿态,安到这个角色上总觉得失于轻浮,而且她的眼睛不够亮,要知道,这对招子可是吸引Mr. Darcy的致命武器啊。

至于Mr. Darcy,Colin Firth的演绎实在是无可匹敌的,他严肃,骄傲,贵族,新版里的Matthew MacFadyen却过于柔软了;我后来读BJ单身日记续集《The Edge of Reason》,有一段BJ采访Colin Firth,(当然这是因为Colin Firth主演这部影片作者故意添加的桥段),BJ一直纠缠Colin Firth问他拍在彭伯利宽衣解带跃入池塘的那场戏,我会意微笑,看来全世界的花痴都是一样的;还有次,在墨尔本Flinders地铁站等晚点的车,我跟一个洋mm聊了半小时,起因就是不知道谁提到了Colin Firth和他的Pride and Prejudice,足见此部经典。Colin Firth太成功了,以至于他本人都难以跳出Mr. Darcy的形象惯性,甚至在无数专访中请求大家把他和Mr. Darcy分开来看待;然而事实就是事实,他的又一成功之作《BJ单身日记》其实就是Mr. Darcy的现代版本!

In the scene, Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle are looking at each other in Pemberley, which is much more ambiguous and delicate than Keira Knightley and Matthew MacFadyen in the rain; Keira Knightley and Matthew MacFadyen may be more like a pair of lovers in love. However, Colin Firth's seriousness and reticence compared with Jennifer Ehle's vivacity and wisdom, really accord with the original meaning.

When I first saw Pemberly, Jennifer Ehle still smiled calmly under the amazement, only slightly sad. She had a chance to become this beautiful mistress; when she came to Keira Knightley, she became a madman. A wry smile and tears in her eyes, this is not Miss Elizabeth Bennet's magnanimity!

Hey, the classics are not easy to be subverted! Ten years will not work!
