Bliss Clair, At the date at which the movie was made, people in general knew far less about historic fashion than was known from the 1980s onwards when British television started producing lots of series of Classic novels and plays. The clothes of the period of Pride and Prejudice were simple and plain, by comparison with early costumes of the 1700s, and later costumes of the Victorian era. So, to comply with a public expectation that a "period" movie would show beautiful, romantic dresses, Pride and Prejudice was made in the same sort of costumes that had been an important feature of Gone with the Wind, which had been enormously popular.

This is a good point but also remember that Darcy is talking about Lizzy being "handsome enough to tempt me" is a reference to social class. The Bennet's are beneath him socially and the common thought of the day was that if a girl was very pretty it could make up for lack of fortune or a lower standing. His comments on her looks is more about how she isn't attractive enough for him to lower himself socially, not even to dance with. This scene is to show just how much he overcomes his own prejudice to eventually ask Lizzy to marry him.

I disagree, Greer is too old 1980 is plain, 1995 is passable but the costumes don't flatter her figure, and 2005 Lizzie is dressed so drab that it takes away from Keira's natural beauty.

I like most of the reactions but Jennifer Ehle's is my favorite. Being hurt at an insult is a natural reaction, and we see that with The Lizzie Bennet Diaries and Keira Knightley. All three of the above blend in a nice amount of humor to their responses, which is accurate to the book. But with Ehle, what I love is how quickly and determinedly she is able to transmute the insult into humor. You see this beautiful moment on her face as she's in shock, not quite sure how she should take this. And a moment later, she's like, "Dude, what do I care? I just met this guy. He's a stranger to me and his opinions don't matter." Even in her recounting of the story later to Jane we can see there's no hurt left, just humor. This strong sense of self was one of the things that always drew me to this version of Lizzie. Knightley's Lizzie and Lizzie in The Lizzie Bennet Diaries both use humor to overcome the slight, but both of these I think are lashing out to wound back. Their hackles are up. Ehle's Lizzie just kinda lets it roll off her. Again, hurt is natural, but I admire the ability to let slights roll off you more. I also like Colin Firth's Darcy the most in this scene (although Matthew McFadyen is a close second) because of his reactions. There is a miniscule smile on Firth's face and he acknowledges Bingley is enjoying himself with Jane. Remember Bingley and Jane just met so Darcy feels no fear of Bingley being truly attached. And I love when Darcy sees Lizzie walk away and talk to Charlotte and giggle. What is he thinking? "Oh crap, she overheard me, I'm a jerk?" Or "Huh, that response is unusual. Intriguing?" Or "Crap, they're laughing at me?" Which would fit nicely into the book again, as later Lizzie pinpoints his best punishment in a conversation with Caroline - to laugh at him. I enjoy that we as an audience can't quite read him, leaving us to conjecture. Just like Lizzie.

Keira not only smiles too much, she opens her mouth wide when she laughs. And she wrinkles her nose and giggles in a babyish way. These mannerisms were common in girls of Keira's age. They would NEVER have been socially acceptable in Jane Austin's day. Keira should have been TOLD by the person who was employed to get the context right. No-one would expect a young person to KNOW these thing without studying some social history,

Providence Iris, I don't agree. She is "barely tolerable". The reason for this lies in the directing and in particular, in the lack of briefing of the actress about the social aspects of the period which she is playing. When she brushes Darcy aside with a clever comment at the end of this clip, she does it with a large, smarty, cutesy smile, like a cheeky schoolgirl being smart in front of her friends. Elizabeth would not have delivered that line with a wide smile. If you watch the whole movie, you see that Keira smiles and laughs with her mouth open and uncovered, several times. Elizabeth would never do that. I would not expect a modern young actress like Keira Knightley to know that laughing loudly and smiling widely was rude. She needed to be told. The fact that she does this, AND wrinkles her nose in a cutesy way means that she s NEVER in character. "Cute" was a concept that didn't exist at Jane Austen's time. But at the period at which Keira was a teenager,"acting in a cutesy, little-girl manner was extremely fashionable. So girls shrugged, wrinkled their noses, wiggled when they walked, giggled, and looked "adorable". NONE of that is right for Lizzie.

Someone Odd, Part of the CHALLENGE of making a movie set in an historic period is creating an aura of that date. If that is not important, then you make a spoof, like Pirates of the Caribbean, or set the story in the Modern era like Romeo + Juliet. The fact that Keira played Eliza laughing with her mouth wide open, and wriggling and giggling in a manner that WAS briefly fashionable around 2000. is not Keira's CHOICE. It is Keira's IGNORANCE. She had no way of knowing how the part ought to be played, unless she was appropriately briefed, about how a woman of that period would act, and appropriately directed. Keira is a capable actress, not an historian of the Georgian period of British Social History. She was perfectly capable of playing Lizzi Bennet with the right sort of mannerisms, but only if she was properly informed. Because Keira was NOT informed, this movie has already become DATED. It is dated because of the way that Keira plays it. As for Matthew being amazing as Darcy..... he wasn't. He walked into the ball looking VERY AVERAGE. His first appearance at Netherfield Society should have set him apart from every other man there by his bearing, his dignity, his tailoring, and an IMMACULATE shave. Understand that Darcy would never have appeared in public with stubble on his chin. He was shaved by his valet, with what is called a "cut-throat razor". If his shave was not PERFECT he would have found a new valet. Think of Darcy as a CEO, not as a shy young man, who has been invited somewhere where he doesn't know people. Think of him as a person who has the Royal Princes to stay, when they want to go hunting.

MandyJMaddison Ah, thank you. I could never quite put my finger on why Keira Knightly rubbed me the wrong way in that movie, even though she is a wonderful actress otherwise. ‚She‘s just not English enough‘, was the best way, I could describe it...without being able, to quite explain what I mean by that. The subtleties of her mannerisms just aren’t quite right. But then, that movie committed a couple of other, very obvious faux pax, anyway. Like that scene, where Jane is recovering from her cold at Mr. Bingley‘s house and he just enters her bedroom, with her laying in bed in her freaking nightgown. I‘m no historian, but I can’t imagine, a well bred young man would just enter an unmarried young women’s bedroom like that. With barely acquainted people, that would be somewhat shocking even today!

1940 Elizabeth standing up: What a charming man!! (That reminded me of my late mother's sense of humor.)

I saw the film first so it would seem that I would like that one better. However, after seeing the 1995 series, it was clearly superior. The way he looks at Elizabeth as she passes by him, you can see that he was already in love with her. Colin Firth does an excellent job.

My favorite version is the 1995 version. They nailed a lot of the dialogue and the light background and their costumes seemed so greatly fitting. Colin Firth's portrayal of Darcy was very much on par with how he is in the book. I gave the 2005 version a shot a few years ago and I was less than impressed. Darcy was incredibly boring and definitely didn't look the part. The backgrounds and the costumes were so dark and Elizabeth speaking to Darcy and her asking him about the dance was so far off the reality of what would have happened at that time. And the way they had done Kiera Knightley's hair, even for that assembly, with her bangs, made her look unkempt like she had only just run through a field to get there. Women definitely didn't do that back in those days. They should have done her hair in a way that was neat and tidy and had curls framing her face, not bang. 1995 Pride and Prejudice for the win! ❤️

I also prefer the 1995 version over the romanticized modernized version of 2005. In the first place, Pride and Prejudice is not a romance novel but more of a social commentary about the life of the landed gentry and aristocracy. It portrayed the necessity of surviving financially during the time of Jane Austen; hence, the preoccupation on finding a rich husband and even a rich wife. Plus, the 2005 version made the Bennets look like lower class country folks because the movie wanted to portray a "poor" woman catching a rich man against the expected norms of society. The truth is they all belonged to the same social milieu- or they would not be able to mix in society. They did not work for a living and had maids and laborers. The difference lay in the size of the estate and number of servants. The Bennets had a smaller estate and fewer servants compared to the Bingleys and the Darcys. Plus, daughters could not inherit the estate of their father as stated by law. It just so happened that the elder Bennet sisters were able to find love and wealth in their husbands.

The 2005 version wasn't inaccurate so much as compressed into a two hour film. And in that regard, compressed better than most do which usually hack like the 4th, 5th & 6th Harry Potter films hacked away at their books. That did unfortunately show more of the romance than other versions, but I also expected nothing else from Hollywood. Agreed with everything else though. My favorite version was the 1995 version until I recently found (and finished in two days) The Lizzie Bennet Diaries.

2005’s captured Darcy better. He was more awkward as he should have been and not a douche like in other versions. And Lizzie was actually the age she should have been. LBD did a good job at this too. At capturing Darcy that is.

Yeah Hollywood messed with 2005 a bit too much. I prefer 1995 for sure. But 2005 had good moments. I just wish they hadnt made the proposal scene so romanticized

I agree. I liked the 1995 version because it was accurate too but then i liked the 2005 version more as it is more intense therefore i was more engrossed in it Edit: i also think that the actors and actresses played a major role in it. Especially keira and matthew as lizzie and mr. Darcy Edit 2: oh and the music too is amazing (2005 p&p)

I can't help but love the 1995 version! All perfect!

1995 will always be my favorite

Too bad you couldn't include Pride and Prejudice and Zombies in here... Would have loved to see scenes from that film in these comparisons!!!

In the 1940 version Elizabeth Bennet is dismissed as middle class. However, in Jane Austen's book her father is a country gentleman and she thus belongs to the landed gentry. Moreover, her father has an income of £2,000 a year, more than double the figure of some of the other gentry in Austen's novels.

thank you for including LBD!! underrated adaptation tbh

You included Lizze Bennet Diaries! YES!

Pride and prejudice 1995 ❤️

No Bridget Jones's Diary?

@@Rainbow-gc6kh - I didn't finish watching the video, but I see it now. So I guess if they included that, then they could've stretched it further and included Bridget Jones Diary.

1995 is what I see the original book as and 2005 has the perfect changes to a movie adaptation!

I adore Matthew MacFadyen, but Colin just nails the part of Darcy. You can see what he's thinking, it's written on his face. He doesn't have to speak his disdain is evident by his facial expressions.

I saw the 1995 version first and fell in love with the story. However, I enjoyed the 2005 version more.

I gotta say for the most accurate (to how I imagined the scene) was the 2008 one, but I really enjoyed the Indian version! It was so much fun to watch and the LBD which if course no other version compares for me... I love this story!

In Elisabeths mind *Taking notes, I will take revenge!*

Oh my god!!! How has the KZread algorithm, which knows I am unhealthily obsessed with everything Austen, only recommend this to me now?! 😀😀😀😀😀

I’ve only seen 3 of these (80s, 90s, and 05). I liked those three but Jennifer Ehle is my Lizzie. ❤️

The 1995 version is the only one worth watching over and over.

The 1995 BBC version is the closest to the book, the most faithful to the period, and has by far the best casting and acting. The 2005 version actually has a PIG running through the Bennet family home. Darcy's declaration of love in the rain at the folly is pure Hollywood and it pales in comparison to the restrained (and far more believable, given the time period) romance of the 1995 version. Colin Firth IS Darcy...and Keira Knightley, while very pretty by modern standards, would have been considered emaciated in the Regency Era, more like Miss Anne de Bourgh than Miss Elizabeth Bennet.

Yes. The point is precisely that Elizabeth is too skinny to be considered a beauty for that era... in the book, Elizabeth is not a beauty. But she is beautiful in her own way. This is also why I hated the 1995 movies. Elizabeth just looks like a well endowed courtesan...

I think? the 1940 one was meant to be a period one, but it's interesting how both the 1940 and 1980 reflect the eras they were made in ( e.g. Elizabeth's hair in the '80 one).

I think the 80s one is fairly historically accurate. Thr 2005 one decided to forgo the curly front cuts and went for a softer fringe look

2005 version can't be beat!! I love it💕💕 wrote and acted out so well!

Not only colins versn best for his histionics..actng abilities.. Jennifer e actng..her take on Darcy also v well done..and leaves one exhilrated excited..entertained Energetic too... Lov this 95version best More for colin..love him..greek God😀😍😍😍😎

I don't know you, but I love you for made this

8:35 WTH Mr.Darcy?? What are you doing with ur pantsss??? I cant stop laughing from this

i liked that the 2005 version set the scene up so that darcy wouldnt see lizzie as soon as he turned his head a mere 60 degrees... but the 1995 and 2005 are my favorite :) extra points for the 2005 cuz im biased... i like keira knightly too much

I personally love the Lizzie Bennet Diaries so much

2005 P&P is such a fine piece of art

Darcy wasn’t saying he didn’t want to dance with her because she wasn’t popular! He was saying he wasn’t in the mood to dance with a girl ONLY because she was neglected. It would take an emotional effort and he had something on his mind! Dude that certainly made him sound shallow!

i'm so glad the bollywood version was included, it's so unknown but such a fun movie and a great adaptation - very pleased

2005 version is excellent, nothing can match it

IMO the 1995 Lizzie Bennett is the best one.

The 2005 one will forever be my first and favorite. ❤️

Colin Firth is the only Darcy in my head because they keep casting him as such in multiple versions of it

I liked all the movies/TV mini series adaptations of P&P, including Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (book and movie)

I Love This !!! Too Funny & Cool !

I watched the 2003 version and I swear it was like a fever dream

After seeing the 1980 version, which i liked i saw the 1995 version with the spirit and the chemistry between the actors ánd...liked it better!

1980 is the one which is most like the novel, and I love the cast

2005 version reigns supreme

I half expected St Trinians to be on here

The 1995 version skyhigh above the others.

Love that the Bollywood version has Dutch subtitles. Ahem, GEKOLONISEERD.

I think the mini series with Colin Firth and the 2005 version with Keira Knightly are the best!

Brb! Seeing if I can find the bollywood version of pride and prejudice. Never realized I needed that

2005&1995

darcy: she's not handsome enough elizabeth: *bITCH-- im about to end this whole man's career*

A v ery elegant version!

Omg, when I first watched pride and prejudice I was wondering why it was so similar to Bride and Prejudice (in my country the movie is called differently. that's why i didn't know it was modern p&p). It makes SENSE now!

The best version if the one with Colin Firth and . Jennifer Ehle. Hands down.

I LOVE the last ONE.

simple, if YT keeps pestering videos with 3 ads every 30 seconds, then those advertirses will get a thumbs down and no business for their money

We all know what it feels like, when a friend drags you to the disco when you’re not in the mood. I guess that’s why Darcy spouts off. I think the 1995 version captures that best, because the’ve kept most of the original dialogue. The others make the insult more personal to Lizzy, rather than as a general disdainful comment towards the social setting in general. 'Come, Darcy,' said he, 'I must have you dance. I hate to see you standing about by yourself in this stupid manner. You had much better dance.' 'I certainly shall not. You know how I detest it, unless I am particularly acquainted with my partner. At such an assembly as this it would be insupportable. Your sisters are engaged, and there is not another woman in the room whom it would not be a punishment to me to stand up with.' 'I would not be so fastidious as you are,' cried Bingley, 'for a kingdom! Upon my honour, I never met with so many pleasant girls in my life as I have this evening; and there are several of them you see uncommonly pretty.' 'You are dancing with the only handsome girl in the room,' said Mr. Darcy, looking at the eldest Miss Bennet. 'Oh! she is the most beautiful creature I ever beheld! But there is one of her sisters sitting down just behind you, who is very pretty, and I dare say very agreeable. Do let me ask my partner to introduce you.' 'Which do you mean?' and turning round, he looked for a moment at Elizabeth, till catching her eye, he withdrew his own and coldly said, 'She is tolerable; but not handsome enough to tempt me; and I am in no humour at present to give consequence to young ladies who are slighted by other men. You had better return to your partner and enjoy her smiles, for you are wasting your time with me.' Mr. Bingley followed his advice. Mr. Darcy walked off; and Elizabeth remained with no very cordial feelings towards him. She told the story, however, with great spirit among her friends; for she had a lively, playful disposition, which delighted in any thing ridiculous.
