I have an indescribable love for "Pride and Prejudice", and I can't remember how many times I read it in Chinese and English. It is because of the love for the original work, so I can't wait to watch it when I see the resources. I have a habit of skipping through a movie every time I finish it, and then watch it again when I have time. However, this version of the BBC miniseries made me stop watching once I started. It was already midnight. . .
I really like Jane Austen's portrayal of characters. Her protagonists have unique personalities and independent thoughts, especially women. Elizabeth is a typical example. She is beautiful and generous, lively and cheerful, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and has a kind of arrogance that is different from the social class she is in. She also has her own unique standard for the choice of her future husband, which is clearly different from her sisters, so she often Will be ashamed of the rude behavior of family members. But he also has to be very easy-going and kind. . Darcy is different. His family background, social status, learning experience, etc. allow him to express his arrogance without reservation. Therefore, there is a prejudice on both sides against themselves.
I have always had lingering fears about the film and television works adapted from the original works, such as "A Dream of Red Mansions" and "Journey to the West" (the old version of course!!) are the best of the best. But this version is really eye-opening. The original dissatisfaction with the appearance of the lead actor disappeared after watching six episodes. Uncle Colin is the most perfect Darcy in my heart. I was impressed by the words of the producer in the episode, "Colin may not be like Darcy, but when he plays Darcy, you will think he is Darcy". The handsome outside, gentle and firm eyes make the audience really feel the depth of his love. In particular, there is a scene where Darcy and Elizabeth are facing each other. The talking eyes and the half-smiling mouth really make me cringe every time I watch it...
Let's talk about Elizabeth, I really miss Jennifer's appearance It took a few episodes to accept it, and it took a few more episodes to fall in love with her. I have to admire her acting skills, Elizabeth in her bones...
The most unsatisfactory part of the casting is Miss Bingley, who has a sharp mouth, sharp teeth and a sharp mouth. How could Darcy see her with eyes as high as he could. . .
...
Classic film and television works are faithful to the original work, and such mini-series are largely faithful to the original work, including character dialogue, and the adaptation of the screenwriter also reveals profound skills. It's just that the wedding ending is a little rushed and pale, lacking the solidity that the ending should have. However, despite the flaws, this is still a rare good work.
The unique noble temperament of the actors, coupled with the polite tone of British English, endow the whole play with a gentle, gentlemanly and noble temperament. I figured Jane Austen would be delighted if she saw this version in heaven.
In conclusion, for anyone who likes Jane Austen, it's a must-see.
