my friends and I watched the 6 hour BBC production of Pride and Prejudice today while munching on scones and other yummy treats. The entire movie was positively delightful. Capitol! (lol) Poor Wickam,Maggie had decided that the horse should kick Lydia and the poor girl ought to die. Well, that would have been alright with me, but Allison did point out that it is much more dreadful for Wickam to have to live with her for the rest of his life. True. And Wickam did deserve it, although she was an airhead to go along with the elopement. Well anyway, there was much more to the movie than Wickam and silly Lydia (I take your place Jane, for I am a married woman now...) There was of course the awful Ms. Bingley, and sweet Ms. Darcy, who was quite the opposite of her older brother. Though he was ten years her senior which I suppose must explain it. At the end, when Darcy was proposing to Lizzie, I looked at Laura and she kinda had this sad smile, and we both had tears in our eyes.
We are such girls. It's almost scary.

I love that movie. It's a perfect portrayal of all the characters. I love when Darcy smiles at the end. And I got the biggest kick out of Mr. Collins - that whole thing with Mr. Bennet just cracks me up every time. "Lizzie, I am afraid that from today on you will have to be a stranger to one of your parents. Your mother has said that she will not see you again if you do not marry Mr. Collins, and I shall never see you again if you do." That's probably my favorite line.
"Mrs. Wickham... Lord, how droll that sounds!" Lydia, Lydia, Lydia. I don't feel sorry for Wickham. They deserved each other.
Anyway.
i think at the end, when he's sitting on the edge of the bed and she kinda rubs him with her foot, and does that stupid smile, well, i kinda felt sorry for him in that moment.
