the colin firth version!
and realised that Mr Hurst must be the best role to play?
you get paid for Sleeping, Eating and drinking all the time!
oh yeah well and then some half drunken lines completely out of context!
haha I got a good laugh, I never really noticed that before.
Oh yes and Mr Colins he would be fun, being silly and apologizing all the time...
any of you who got a good laugh?
hugs Ida

I thought it was very funny for the very snooty Mrs. Hurst to have such a lump for a husband!

hmm well perhaps she married for money aye`??
I think that Miss Austen gave louisa that husband to ridicule the way to marry then,
marring for money = ridicules husband!

Mrs Hurst is such a rotten woman. She is obviously unhappy in her choice of husband, he's a completely useless fop. She instead lives vicariously through her single sister, who she believes will land herself a hottie like Darcy.

You can see the bullets being shot from her eyes at Lizzie's "a pair of fine eyes".

LOL... Yes, especially at the end of the series, when Colin gets up and says the likes of: As a matter of fact, I've come to believe that Miss Bennett is one of the finest women of my acquaintance. (or somethign like that)

I'm a great advocate for comeuppance. Miss Bingley deserved a good dressing down and she got it; fish-eyed [naughty word I shouldn't be using].

Are you a vulgarian?

Indeed, when it comes to the Miss Bingleys, Mr. Collins and other reprehensible characters of Jane Austen's stories, I am sometimes driven to such extremes.

Amen. ;D
Jane really likes to allow her antagonists shoot themselves in the foot.

haha I love you guys!!
you make me laugh so hard!
but even when you read the book you can feel Jane Austen's irony and ridicule of her "circumstanses"
I think that is why I fell so hard for her, her humour, I think she was waaaay ahead of her time!

Funny you should mention Miss Bingley in that version. My youngest daughter thought it was a man dressed like a woman. I quite enjoy the company of Lady Cathrine DeBurgh as well. I'd had to meet her in a dark alley.

Poor Miss Bingley never gets Darcy. Colin Firth and Anna Chancellor were also in "What A Girl Wants". Not a great movie but once again Anna plays a character who is after Colin's character and doesn't get him.
