This is what good actors/actresses ought to be like!!

In their performance...their eyes tell the characters' souls...their movement reveal their innermost turmoils...and their voices and breaths are in sync with their wishes and thoughts. They bring out the true flesh and blood of characters.

I cannot get enough of it!

I think this scene just made me really fall in love with this version of P&P. It's just what I had envisioned while reading the book and even so much better! I love how Darcy restlessly walks up and down the room, sits down just to stand up again until he finally confesses his feelings to her. It's downright perfect.

What I like most about ol' times is that actors and actresses were chosen on the basis of their acting skills and not because they had a size zero figure or a pretty face!P.S I loveeeeeee Colin Firth. Specially in this scene. He portrays the restlessness and the internal turmoil of Darcy to perfection.

oh dear, the clock in the background shows 6.17 all the time. Either it's supposed to be broken or it escaped the film crew. hehe. but not me. :-D

@CosmoExplosion I agree. I think Darcy looks bored in This version. In the '05 version, he always just appears coldly quiet and observant, but here.. I don't know, he really is too proud, I don't think she has prejudice. I can't feel the chemistry. Jane and Bingley were supposed to marry out of love, Lydia and Wickham out of infatuation/lust (that's what I got from it), Charlotte and Collins out of financial security, but Darcy and Elizabeth was Passion! I can't feel it.

Poor Darcy looks so hurt, but what did he expect from such a haughty proposal? They're well matched, though as she knocks him down a few pegs and he has to prove to her that he's misunderstood.

Much better than the stagey '80s version or the funny and entertaining but not quite P&P '40s one. The '05 one has a good Lizzy, but a feeble Darcy.

I'll marry you Mr Darcy...

Colin Firth definitely is the best Darcy everrrrrrr! :)))) -3

[Spampiglets]

Why the hell would you say no to him! HE IS GORGEOUS AND AWESOME!

[CosmoExplosion]

@SuperElle44 , this version is better since it includes every detail of the novel, but i daresay this scene was more epic and dramatic in the 2005 version. darcy doesnt look bored in it. he expresses his feelings more like he does in the book than in this 95 version. and elizabeth too.

"...that you were the last man in the world that I could ever marry." Is it bad that I thought this line was awesome? x) It was quite severe, to Mr. Darcy, but wow, it was awesome.
