Pride and Prejudice- Joe Wright

This film is brilliant. The acting of Donald Sutherland and Brenda Blethyn (playing the parents of the daughters). I'm not sure what a Jane Austen fan would think about the film but I didn't know anything about it when I first watched it and thought it was very enjoyable- even the "acting" of Keira Knightley is bearable. The set, locations and costume are amazing and the music is very pretty. Lots of humour can be found in the script and the romance and frustration of the relationships are portrayed in an engaging and convincing manner by all of the cast. It was also nice to see Tom Hollander and Dame Judi Dench take short roles, I am a massive fan of both of their work. To sum up, the film is one to be recommended to those film lovers who enjoy a real period, classy piece that makes them proud to be British...
