Pride and Prejudice
๐๐๐๐๐
Amazon | IMDBย |ย Rotten Tomatoes
I just discovered that the 1995 BBC Pride and Prejudice TV Mini-Series is on Amazon Prime Video! I can watch it for free! (I own the DVD so I can always watch it for free.ย I don’t know why I was so excited to find it on Prime, but its the little things that make me happy!) I may or may not have stayed up till 2:30 am watching it last night.ย Getting up for work this morning was rough!ย But it was worth it! I don’t regret it whatsoever!
Two Words: Colin Firth
And we can’t forget Jennifer Ehle!
They are both amazing and I love them!
In case you couldn’t tell I love this adaptation! Its better than a movie because it is longer and therefore covers more, but it also isn’t a full TV Series so it isn’t too drawn out.ย Its perfect.ย I have watched it many, many times! Anyone who loves Pride and Prejudice needs to watch this adaptation! Ahhhhhh I just love it so much!!!
Colin Firth!!! He is the best:-) I just saw Love, Actually the other night and was drooling. Anyway, I love this production of P&P as well, I also own the DVDs:-)

Jennifer Ehle is definitely my favorite Lizzie! Although Colin Firth is super nice, MacFadyen will forever be my Darcy โค

I just finished the Lizzie Bennet Diaries and Pride and Prejudice again. I’m pretty sure perfectly tolerable has to do with the movie because I thought of you as soon as I heard a certain phrase.
I doubt I’ll like the mini series as much but it’s Pride and Prejudice so who knows?
Have you read the book series Kat, Incorrigible? It is very pride and prejudice-ish.

Haha yes!! Perfectly Tolerable is based on the movie. In the book he just says “Tolerable” which doesn’t make as good of a blog name as “Perfectly Tolerable” ๐
And I loved Lizzie Bennet Diaries โค I have not read Kat, Incorrigible, but I will go check it out right now!! Thanks ๐

This is a wonderful mini-series. I haven’t seen it in ages. (Although, I’ve watched who-knows how many times in the late 1990s!) Maybe it’s time for a re-watch?

Colin Firth was perfect as Mr Darcy! Jennifer Ealeโs portrayal wasnโt quite what I imagined Elizabeth to be, she possess spirit sure, but none of the liveliness that I thought she would… in that sense, I preferred Keira Knightleyโs performance in the film adaptation.
