April 11, 2019
A charming, literate series full of characters that are believable in the story's period setting, but which also have relevance in the modern world.

It would be hard to find a more pleasant way to spend an afternoon than with the BBC's production of Pride and Prejudice.
April 11, 2019
Deeply comforting on an aesthetic level. At six hours, it's the perfect length to occupy a rainy weekend or a day sick at home, and its narrative unfolds at a steady, inexorable pace, as gracefully as the formation dances in the ball scenes.
April 11, 2019
At six hours, this BBC adaptation is a good deal more thorough than necessary... But Colin Firth is magnificent as her beau, haughty, mercurial Mr. Darcy. And there are flashes of Austen's heartbreakingly accurate wit.
April 11, 2019
Colin Firth is Mr Darcy -- cool, arrogant, cruel and a bit sexy. Yes, he takes an impromptu swim in his blouson and breeches and emerges, dripping, into the melting hearts of millions of sighing women.
April 11, 2019
As agreeable a manner in which to pass 55 minutes as can be imagined, at least in polite society.
April 11, 2019
A show that fails to rise even to the height of expectations this soapy is a show in serious trouble, and when Elizabeth and Darcy are off the screen, there is not much else to entertain us.
April 11, 2019
The acting is uniformly flawless. Jennifer Ehle, a stage thespian with minimal film experience, is enchanting as Lizzie.
April 11, 2019
It's distinguished by a beautifully crafted combination of elements, from the combustible chemistry between Ehle and Firth, to Davies' lively script, Simon Langton's fluid direction and Carl Davis's jauntily rippling score.
April 11, 2019
This reader will never again be able to open the pages of Pride and Prejudice without picturing the actors in this unforgettable television production.
April 11, 2019
As far as TV adaptations of literary classics go, this is probably as good as it gets.
April 11, 2019
[Colin Firth's] Darcy, regal rigidity irresistibly crumpled at the feet of our zingy heroine, is the stuff of a girl's romantic dreams, right up there with horses and Paris in the spring.
