Jane Austen's classic novel about true love amongst the privileged and beautiful gets yet another big screen adaptation. Lizzie Bennet is suitably feisty, Mr Darcy is suitably aloof and brooding and all looks deliciously lush and halcyon. You either love this stuff or you don't and while the BBC's 1995 adaptation is still perhaps superior this is nonetheless a glorious affair. find out more...
