Pride & Prejudice 2005 PG, 130 min. Genre: Drama / Romance
Director: Joe Wright Cast: Keira Knightley, Donald Sutherland, Matthew Macfadyen, Claudie Blakley, Brenda Blethyn, Rosamund Pike, Judi Dench, Jena Malone, Talulah Riley, Simon Woods, Carey Mulligan, Kelly Reilly, Sylvester Morand, Pip Torrens, Janet Whiteside
Based on Jane Austen's novel about love and life in the class-conscious 19th-century England, Donald Southerland and Brenda Blethyn take on the roles of Mr. and Mrs. Bennet whose daughters' futures seem to hinge on marrying into the world of wealth–not necessarily with love involved. When Elizabeth (Keira Knightley) opts to choose her own husband for love, not money, her sisters follow suit. Four Academy Award nominations were received, including Best Actress (Keira Knightley).
