But every time the one with Keira Knightley comes on the cable channel, I watch it. I LOVED the actor who played Mr. Darcy.

And, clearly, the movies are worth watching over and over for the Mr. Darcys. Though, yes, Colin is the better Mr. Darcy...<BR/><BR/>But more than that, it's what Tera said, Austen's writing is sharp, funny, still accessible, and emotional. Sexual tension throughout the book, and a dark hero who saves her day. Love it.<BR/><BR/>HHeather Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11010941540615940287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-40505917696745918192007-05-30T11:39:00.000-07:002007-05-30T11:39:00.000-07:00Steph -- You MUST see this version.
