Review: The amount of Jane Austen films brought to the big screen is astronomical. This version Pride and Prejudice is one of the most famous, being a role that solidified Colin Firth as a romantic heartthrob in the minds of many women, and in fact even served as the launchpad for his admiration by Bridget Jones in the famous books/films.
This new DVD release is a restored version that has remastered color and sound. We own the original DVD release (which cost me a pretty penny!), as my wife is a HUGE Austen fan. I can tell you that there is a huge difference in quality. The film has never looked better and the color palet is far more saturated.
This is a romantic classic. Its a must-own for anyone that enjoys Jane Austen or just film that deals with affairs of the heart. If you're into period films, this is the finest example we've seen. I highly recommend it.
