The classic tale of love and misunderstanding unfolds in England near the close of the 18th century. The five Bennett sisters, Elizabeth, Jane, Lydia, Mary and Kitty have been raised well aware of their mother's fixation on finding them husbands and giving them bright futures. Elizabeth, however, strives to live her life with a broader perspective, as encouraged by her father.When wealthy bachelor Mr. Bingley begins to reside in a nearby mansion. Among the man's circle of friends and the increase of young militia officers, there is no shortage of men for the Bennett sisters to choose from. Jane, the oldest, and most beautiful, falls in love with Mr. Bingley. Elizabeth is introduced to the handsome and snobbish Mr. Darcy, and the battle of the sexes is joined.Their encounters are frequent and interesting yet far from encouraging. Elizabeth finds herself inclined not to accept a marriage proposal from a cousin, Mr. Collins, and with the support of her father, she upsets her mother and Mr. Collins by declining. When the good hearted Mr. Bingley abruptly departs for London, devastating Jane, Elizabeth holds Mr. Darcy responsible for contributing to the heartbreak. But a crisis involving sister Lydia soon opens Elizabeth's eyes to the true nature of her relationship with Mr. Darcy. The two finally understand each others intentions and fall in love and get married.
I decided to focus mainly on the love and thoughts of the Bennett mother. The entire movie was focused around the idea that all the Bennett children are supposed to get married in a timely fashion. A mother's main focus in the 18th century was to marry off her children. I chose to focus on that instead of the main love story of Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy.
I love the movie that you picked but i think you gave a little to much information about the ending. I love that they have different versions of this book. I think you could of made it more desirable in they way you said things.
ReplyDeleteI appreciate your comments and I love the movie too and all of the different versions. Now that I look back I think you might be right about giving away too much information about the ending. I honestly did not think about how much information I was giving away at the time of my writing the review. I do not understand what you mean by making it "more desirable." Do you mean in terms of trying to get people to watch the movie? If so, then I can see where you are coming from because this film has a lot of qualities that people can relate to their real lives although it is fantasy.
ReplyDeleteyes i was meaning to try to get people to watch the movie
