2005's 'Pride & Prejudice' Is the Best Jane Austen Adaptation — Here Are 10 Reasons Why
While Jane Austen's work has unknowingly birthed some of the most iconic period drama adaptations, 2005's Pride & Prejudice arguably takes the crown.
In the world of period dramas, grand declarations of love and unforgettable romantic gestures often take center stage. Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice reminds us that some of the most romantic moments are neither a kiss nor a spoken word, but rather a sense of mutual understanding or the simple flex of a hand. That's precisely what makes the 2005 film adaptation so unforgettable. It continues to captivate audiences decades after its release, standing out as a defining take on Austen's beloved novel, even in the company of other cherished versions, such as the 1995 BBC miniseries.
