Pride and Prejudice Joe Wright 2005 France / UK The middle - and most stubborn - of five sisters in Georgian England falls for a mysterious, rich man. Often brilliant to look at - some of the early establishing shots are very impressive, and Darcy's final emergence through the fog is irresistible. The dance scenes are a treat, with the camera tracking over several separate conversations at once, interweaving as the participants move around. As a contemporary adaptation of a classic novel already famous as a BBC TV series, its aesthetic comes as a pleasant surprise.
