I like the way that this verion does not update or simplify the language. In the 2005 version they rush through their lines as if the director is holding a stopwatch yelling "Faster! Faster!". This verion really allows the atmosphere and emotions to develop.

HE is the true Mr. Darcy! No one can measure up to Colin Firth here.

the 2005 version did introduce me to he world of P/P and jane austen.,initially, i didnt like this version.its too stiff/repressedt/actors are too old.etc.all opposite of 05.im biased so i consider the historical accuracy then i begun to 'look outside of the box' .Our lizzy here is absolutely gorgeous i mean her eyes do really sparkle?,it was alwys mention in the novel.our darcy here well his really good in repressing his emotion but im too biased over mathhew's darcy he manage to pull off

I love how you can hear the trembling in his voice as he relates his feelings <3

This is the best version of P&P but I wish the director had ordered a few more takes. It's obvious there were many errors that could have been corrected. E.g. at 2:50 Elizabeth accidentally says, "Who that knows what his misfortunes can been can help feeling..." and later (not included in this vid), she hesitates for too long when she says, "You could not have made me ... the offer of your hand in any possible way that would have tempted me to accept it." Lady Cath also makes this error later.

@VampiresExist0013 I don't think she looks bored at all. She is reserved and keeping a bridle on things while still being open and communicating, all of which are characteristics that are sorely lacking in modern society. I thought she looked furious, actually. And the disdain and disgust she puts into the last words "A more gentleman like manner" show all that is needed. No yelling, no spitting, no shaking of fists is needed. Modern American actors don't know how to speak without speaking.

Yep, casting was very well done in need. Pity that most of the original is missing and what we have is in the wrong order!

I too like this version much better. I feel it's much closer to the book. I could watch it a billion times over <3
