Dies und das:

Jennifer Ehle (Lizzy Bennet) is a blonde. The dark hair she wears during this production is a wig. Knowing she would be wearing a wig for filming, Jennifer had her hair cut very short. This was a problem for the stylists, who had to cover the wisps of blonde hair that escaped from the back of the wig. They would have preferred her hair to have been kept long, which is neater to cover.

Pannen:

Abfolgefehler: When Lady Catherine de Bourgh pays her visit to Longbourn, Hill announces her and stands with her back to the door. In the next shot, Hill is beside the door and, in the next shot, is once again standing with her back to the door.

Dialogzitate:

Mr. Bennet: Til you or your sister Jane return, I shall not hear two words of sense spoken together.

Piano Summary

Probably the best BBC miniseries made-Austen would be proud...

This adaptation of the Jane Austen novel is really incredible. Set design and costumes are very believable and the acting is practically perfect for most of characters.

A few comments on costume: one of the most believable aspects of the details put into this miniseries has to do with the costumes. Elizabeth and Jane are both adorned simple enough to convey a Christian background and some decor and modesty, as they would have properly been dressed during this time, yet the costumers could have expanded their wardrobe as you see many times in American films (the 1999 version of Emma comes to mind here, particularly) and yet at the time, the women would *not* have had 10 different ensembles to wear at special events. I honestly admired the holding back of their wardrobes to a few gowns rather than having gone overboard as you often see! The women who were of higher stature were properly attired in their jewels and every costume fit the character and situation beautifully. This and the musical score are two of the biggest highlights, I felt.

I would also like to give props to Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth who were cast wonderfully. Jennifer was able to convey a sort of devilish satire and quick wit which I thought suited her exceedingly well and accentuated the wit Austen was trying to get across in the novel. Firth held back and it suited his character. He shows a quiet power, a feeling of disdain and complexity in his acting that worked well for the first half of the miniseries and then turned this into admiration and openness later as the story develops. By the time he declares his undying love to Elizabeth you get the impression he is ready to burst open and you breathe a huge sigh of relief for him, yet the energy continues to pulse. Its a great thing to watch..

I would recommend this miniseries to anyone, especially those not yet familiar with Austen. This specific miniseries is so well done many people I have watched it with have sparked incredible interests in the intrigues of Austen's works. Good job BBC!
