Pride and Prejudice (1940)
Adaptation of Jane Austen's novel about the five husband-hunting Bennet sisters and the impact of Mr Darcy on the spirited Elizabeth.
Period drama based on Jane Austen's classic novel about the five husband-hunting Bennet sisters and the impact of the handsome but apparently aloof Mr Darcy on the spirited Elizabeth. Though attracted to Darcy, Elizabeth - the second of the Bennet daughters - is repelled by his cold manner and by rumours of the man's cruelty towards one of his friends.
