Pride and Prejudice

Pride and Prejudice is a Classic Romantic British Film, an adaption of the novel of Jane Austen during the 19th Century in England. The story was about the Bennet Family having 5 lovely daughters (you can see the picture above) who is oblige to marry a man who is rich or who owns a lot of money that will secure their lives in the future. The setting of the story shows you what is really like in the 19th Century because of the set design, location and even the costumes of the characters. In the story, it will show you that even before the way of living and the beliefs that they have still exist until now. People on that time were influence on how they see life, like how they see marriage. The wealth of a person is more important than love, the description of their love is how wealthy a man is like how vain, classy and influential that person is.
