Lory Little’s Pride and Prejudice Valentine’s Day Card
Check out my attempt at the Jane Austen 30 Day Challenge
Bride and Prejudice was, as advertised, a Bollywood version of Pride and Prejudice. The music, dancing, setting, and minor themes were modeled to fit the culture of India. I enjoyed the emphasis on family, presence of arranged marriages, and mentions of getting Visas to live abroad (UK or the US). Mr. Collins (never did remember his Indian name) moved to just north of LA (the valley) and Elizabeth’s mother is quick to call it Hollywood. Although B&P’s plot line IS P&P’s, it could have been done more subtly. The themes and events did not have to match exactly. I totally prefer Bridget Jones.


I stumbled across this on Rotten Tomatoes

The answer Mr. Carr is yes.
Have you watched Bride and Prejudice? What do you think?
-I’m very fond of walking.
-Yes… yes, I know.
It’s time to watch Pride and Prejudice!!!!

Summer resolution: Finally read Pride and Prejudice instead of watching the movie over and over and over again.
A great goal. :)
How did you know that was my summer goal as well?! :)
Isn’t it everyone’s summer goal?!? The first time I read Pride and Prejudice was after I saw 2005 movie version, 10 times. I got through the book in about a week. Who could ever tire of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy?
Lucky for me I was working at a library at the time and one of my co-workers lent me the 1990s BBC Pride and Prejudice mini-series, you know the one with Colin Firth. Since 2005 I’ve read P&P every couple of years, and started this tumblr in 2009. You could say I am hooked.
Cool, but I thought Natalie Portman was going to be Elizabeth.
