I am a movie person but certainly not an old lady movie person. My mom and sister have been telling me to watch it for years and I scoffed at them. Until today. I watched this 6 hour long mammoth in one sitting. I could tell, especially compared to other versions, that it would be impossible to cover the depth of the story and each character within even a 3 hour long movie. Colin Firth and what's-her-face put on an incredible and detailed performance absolutely worth 6 hours of my time. Most of the supporting characters, specifically Collins and the Bennet family, colored the splendid script wonderfully. I highly recommend this to old ladies, British people, and admirers of quality cinema.
