Dies und das:

The pale green muslin gown with intricate ivory lace appliqués that Lucy Robinson as Mrs. Elton wears during the strawberry picking scene at Donwell is the same gown worn by Jennifer Granville (as Mrs. Hurst) at Pemberley in "Pride and Prejudice" (1980) (mini). Robinson herself plays Mrs. Hurst in "Pride and Prejudice" (1995) (mini).

Pannen:

Anachronismus: The year is approximately 1815, yet Jane Fairfax sings an Italian song composed in 1857.

Dialogzitate:

Mr. Knightley: [Knightley speaks of Frank Churchill who will be going to London] To get his hair cut?

A Very Good Movie Indeed!

I've seen this movie after watching Paltrow's version. I've found that one a very good one, and I thought this would not be as good... but I was wrong: British version was far better and enjoyable! I found Jeremy Northam more "agreeable" than Mark Strong, but I can say that Strong catches much better Austen's Knightley. Anyway, both versions are good,but anyone that loved Austen's books, should watch this movie. I agree with *caalling*: Andrew Davies changed a few things, but still remains faithful to the original.

10 out of 10

My 2 cents!
