Pride & Prejudice - Diaries

The Bennet family

The family is so important in Pride and
Prejudice that you don’t have to care about the
movie or characters, you have to love the
Bennets.
 Mr Bennet – Donald Sutherland

It turns out that Elizabeth Bennet - Keira

Knightley is the most extraordinary actress
that he ever met.
It is indescribable how interiorly beautiful
Rosamund was.
Talulah &Kery were like children, Jena
becoming a silly child, too.
Hatred, embraced, supportive and catalysed
by Brenda, it has been such a wonderful
family.
 Mrs Bennet – Brenda Blethyn
She whines people up being funny,
brilliant to telling stories.
Mrs Bennet is a lovely mommy to have,
loving every minute of this film.
The Bennet sisters wouldn’t have been
the girls that they were if they didn’t have a
mother like Mrs Bennet.
In the house it has all been so idyllic that
she wanted all to really happen.
 It has been the little family – the Bennets and the
bigger one – the whole crew.
It is all such an interesting mix of people.
Special moments
Everything you do, has special vibration, but
this one has special atmosphere around it.
With all those girls, it was difficult for Mr.
Collins – Tom Hollander to decide on which one
to focus on, but those were the happiest days of
his life.
It has been lovely having had such a girly
family, with Brenda & Donald in the
middle of it.
For Mr. Darcy it was great sitting at the
dinner table with Lady Catherine de Bourg
– Judi Drench.

It was Heaven!
