    Amature and poor

    it's a BBC play, not a film. The acting is poor and the sound is dreadful. I watched the first 15 minutes and had quite enough. Poor Jane Austen, I bet she would have cringed at viewing this heap of poo!

    Don't bother and watch the film instead

    Having seen the film version with Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet and liked it, I decided to compare it with this BBC adaptation.

    I was incredibly disappointed - the acting was staid, the setting dreary, and scenery not at all remarkable. Having a good impression of BBC adaptations of the Classics, I didn't expect the poor quality of this film.

    Marianne is about as lively as a stone, and Elinor act like she's not even alive. Frankly, my CD version read by Juliet Stevenson is much more exciting.
