Pride and Prejudice


Question Posted Thursday February 23 2006, 5:13 pm

I just saw "Pride & Prejudice" with Keira Knightley and Matthew MacFayden, and it was delightful. I loved it, and now I'm halfway through the novel

In your opinion, why is P&P so popular? What do you think is so appealing about it?

It appeals ( at least to me) because of the timeless romanticism... it also teaches an important lesson ( cliche... i know ... but thats the truth) Its also expertly written and just a fansastic book
enjoy it !

Well I haven't relly seen it but I think it's popular becuase it was a book and there were so many before it that it would probably be fun to see what it was like! I mean there was bride n prejudice and it took everyone by a storm. Anyway I think it's also because of what's going on in the world today...about racism and stuff and it just is so relating to it that it makes sense to see it and undertsnad what loves can pass through just to be with that one person

The characters are very unique, especially for that time. Women like Elizabeth were likely frowned upon for their outspoken and witty natures and usually weren't glorified in text by ANYONE, much less a woman. The vocabulary was good and the basic style is, for the most part, rather entertaining and only moderately difficult for people in high school... unless they aren't much into reading. As for a movie, there are a number of things. Everyone wants to see Keira Knightly, it seems. At least people adore someone TALENTED, for once. And of course, everyone loves a British Victorian Romance movie. Well, not everyone. But you know it will ALWAYS fly with women and some of the more appreciative, probably older men. :)

Kind of interesting that you gave me a 4 when probably no one else (besides the first person above me) would even look twice at this. Whatever.
