I love all the Pride and Prejudice movies, but I think I like this one the best. Director Joe Wright did such a beautiful job, the movie is visually breathtaking. And Keira Knightly and Matthew McFadyen play Lizzy and Darcy is such a human way that I find endearing.
If you're into that sort of thing, I highly recommend watching the film with the director's commentary. Joe Wright talks about different ideas that went into the scenes and raptures on and on about how great the actors are. I noticed details afterwards that I wouldn't have caught before.
If you are ever roaming about the English countryside looking for something to do, may I suggest spending an afternoon in Stourhead Garden?
It was by far one of my favorite stops on my tour of England a few years ago. It was actually designed so that every view from every vantage point in the garden is incredible.
And when you think you've seen everything, you come around a bend in the path and into the secret grotto.
*sigh* I love this stuff. Stunning views, incredible gardens, secret grottoes...
And if you require additional persuasion... Stourhead is also where they shot the proposal scene in the Keira Knightly version of Pride and Prejudice.
Hi, I'm Sara. Everyday I come across things that make me happy - design, fashion, photography, humor - And this is where I collect and share them. Cheers!
