5 Reasons Why the A&E Miniseries Pride & Prejudice Is Just Not Right | Number Three
Mr. Darcy is shown taking a bath.
I’m glad to know Mr. Darcy bathes and all, but this scene is totally unnecessary. It’s basically just a waste of time and an excuse to look at Colin Firth wet.
I was glad to know this, too. Very reassuring :)
*laughs* Can you say fanservice?
lol, yes, it’s definitely gratuitous nudity. My only real issue with the BBC P&P is that we sympathize with Darcy far too early in the film. I wish I could have hated him as long as Elizabeth Bennet did. I’ve never known what it was like to dislike Mr. Darcy, since I saw the movie before I read the book when I was 15. The movies have totally fucked up our view of Darcy. Readers and viewers like him even more than they care for Elizabeth Bennet. I know this because my Darcy posts get the most hits!
