And who doesn't like that wet shirt scene! <br /><br />I love the artistic look of the 2005 film, but found Matthew a very wet, pathetic Darcy. Dracy is meant to be proud and snobbish, not mooning away looking like he is about to burst into tears about prematurely loosing his hair (which I'm afraid, is how MM looks to me). <br /><br />I agree the Darcy from Lost in Austen is actually one of my favourites. His wet shirt scene beats Colin's. Most definitely. <br /><br />Why isn't Donna impressed!?! Does she... not like Mr Dracy!!!?!!<br /><br />Amy @ Turn the PageAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751729015533379496.post-66478946741600250842011-09-08T01:37:04.265+01:002011-09-08T01:37:04.265+01:00Love, love, LOVE Mr. Darcy!

McFayden was ok, but not as handsome. I saw the 2005 version after this and was disappointed... i found myself staring at his nose the whole time, wondering why they would give Mr Darcy such an imperfection,hehe.<br /><br />I have Lost in Austen too, I like that they make that Mr Darcy go into the pond like Colin Firth... that scene always makes the book... i just dont understand why he was so open to her suggestion... u would think he would have his pride and sense of common decency stopping him :P<br /><br />Kris<br />http://abookfromsnowyriver.blogspot.comKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03180615216898943471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751729015533379496.post-48185933898167572012011-09-07T15:23:42.671+01:002011-09-07T15:23:42.671+01:00You know what you girls should check out?

It's still good though I will admit that, and I did enjoy it. But the 1995 version was the first version I watched and so became my love.

It's one of the best. I wasn't overly impressed with the 2005 movie. Definitely check out the 1995 version. It's a little long and you may only find it on dvd now, you need an entire day to watch it as it's about 6 hours long. Worth it though.<br />-JessBook Passion for Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05309754672553133249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751729015533379496.post-71013619651020690462011-09-07T09:24:49.323+01:002011-09-07T09:24:49.323+01:00I've never seen the P&P version with Colin...I've never seen the P&P version with Colin Firth, but I'm totally in love with the 2005 version.
