After finally seeing it, I feel comfortable saying...

That there are not words strong enough to convey my complete, boundless, and utter dislike of the most recent Pride and Prejudice movie.  I think it is quite fair to say that I hated it with the passion of a thousand burning suns, and have never spent so much time yelling at the television screen.

In sum, I say this:  There is only one Darcy, and Colin Firth is his name.  Forever and ever, amen.

I now wonder why all those Austenites wasted their breath kvetching about the costumes.  The story, the characterizations... there were a lot more bitchworthy complaints than costuming.

I am awash with WTF. 

That is all.

No! It was the sexy pre-dawn fog! And his coat was BILLOWING. Honestly, I didn't know if he was Darcy or Angel.

I am SO watching P&P (the REAL P&P) on Wednesday. Provided Charity doesn't, you know, pop in the interim.
