Pride & Prejudice

Although I have seen Pride & Prejudice, the 2005 production in the theatres, and I don't recall if I blogged about it, I bought it at Blockbuster yesterday, under their previously viewed selection. I was able to profit from the 2 for $24, since I found another film that I wanted - Howl's Moving Castle.

Seeing this movie made me realize that I am very similar to two of the characters in the book by Jane Austen. I realized I am very similar to Elizabeth (Lizzie), who is intellectual, likes to read, and speaks her mind openly. She is a good judge of character, although she can be wrong from time to time.

The other character whom I feel I am similar to is Mr. Darcy. He's not too proud, nor prejudiced. He is however, loyal, which is something that I realized I am. I am comfortable with who I am, and I am in a happy place, despite the fact that I seem to be single, but that's another story. And besides, as Mya says, "Because I'm free, single sexy and sweet, making my own money, looking for the right party"

This movie was a lot better the second time I saw it. And I believe it's my friend Nima's favourite movie. I hope he feels more chattier and happier soon.
