PRIDE AND PREJUDICE
Perhaps the best adaption of a Jane Austen novel. What I like about this version is the chemistry each character has with one another, something the 2005 adaption lacked. Julia Sawalha was great as Lydia, no other actress has come close to Alison Steadman's portrayal as Mrs. Bennet, Benjamin Whithrow's Bennet was just amazing, and Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth ARE Lizzy Bennet and Mr. Darcy. Come to think of it, all the actors were brilliant, there wasn't a bad one! The only actress in the 2005 adaption I felt was better than the 1995 adaption was Carey Mulligan, who played Kitty.
