Plot: Jane Austen's classic novel is brought to the screen once again in this intelligent and witty romantic drama. Elizabeth Bennett (Jennifer Ehle) is one of five sisters living on a British country estate in the 1800s. At a time and place in which matrimony is considered a woman's logical goal in life, Elizabeth displays a cautious reluctance toward marriage -- so when a wealthy young man, Fitzwilliam Darcy (Colin Firth) expresses an interest in courting her, she isn't so sure she cares for him. Elizabeth and Darcy discover that they have a great deal to learn about each other -- and no small amount to overcome in their minds -- if they are to find happiness together. Pride and Prejudice was produced as a five hour mini-series by the BBC and was first shown in the U.S. on the A&E cable network. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Finally, what we've been waiting for!
Added 11/24/2009

It looks like the same reviews appear for all the versions. I'm writing about the blu-ray editions, which have been remastered from the original.

The blu-ray version of this favorite P&P is absolutely gorgeous. It's impossible to exaggerate the improvement in the color and detail. Every minute you'll notice details you never noticed, like embroidery in clothing and colored jewels. My wife and I had watched the DVD version many times, and when we saw this we commented continually on things we were seeing for the first time. I could go on and on with examples, but I'll just say that if you love this series, it's worth buying a blu-ray player just to see it. If you already own one, then buying this version of P&P is a no-brainer. Throw those washed-out DVD's in the trash! New blu-ray extras to boot on the 29-dollar version.

Wow!

I've been watching the regular DVD of P&P for years. When I first watched the Blu-Ray version, I was glued to it. Every scene is clear, not muddy. You can see the details in the dresses and, more importantly, Darcy in his wet shirt pops right off the screen! ;o)

Wonderful Adaptaion
Added 11/10/2009

After reading some reviews I was worried about the DVD quality. I was pleased to find that the color in the DVD was not washed out and looked very good! This A&E presentation was a very good representation of the book. The acting and costumes were phenominal! I thought that Lydia and Mr. Bingley were cast perfectly. This DVD is a must for any Pride and Prejudice fan. It was well worth the money.

Best Austen Adaptation
Added 11/10/2009

I have to agree with many of the other reviewers in that this is the best screen adaptation of a book I've ever seen. The cast is perfect to play the roles, and the acting is solid. The characters on screen look as I picture them while reading the book. I had to shell out a lot of cash to get my hands on this back when it was a special order vhs box set years ago. Very glad to have it on DVD. If you're an Austen fan or someone who enjoys period pieces, you have to check this one out.
