Pride and Prejudice Goes To The Movies!

Get out the popcorn and get cozy because we're going to the movies this week! Not only are we going to discuss Pride and Prejudice 2005, but also a sweet bonus movie!  Welcome dearest listeners to another Mr. Darcy-obsessed-fueled episode of Austen-Tatious! I’m your host, L.A. Grabins, and today I have an amazing jam-packed episode lined up for you! As I mentioned before, today we’re going to the movies and watching Pride and Prejudice 2005 & a cool sweet bonus - Pride and Prejudice: A New Musical! Both are exceptional adaptations of Pride and Prejudice, in their own ways, and should be watched by every single Jane Austen fan out there! Since these are not exactly the same medium (the musical was merely a filmed recording of their performances, kind of like how they shot Hamilton), I’m not going to be comparing them to each other. Instead, I’ll do a shortened version of what I did last time, spending the first half on a review for the movie and then finishing off with the musical. Much like last time, I’m going to be looking at five categories. The five categories I’ll be looking under are: Costuming Relationship Depictions Depictions of Balls Inclusion of Letter Details Book Accuracy Since obviously, one is a musical and, well, Pride and Prejudice was not created as a musical, book accuracy for the musical will look more at only the events and characters included, while also taking a little time to talk about how the music fits in. So, without further ado, let’s get to it!
