  7. Character Inaccuracies • The director and screenwriter did not put Mr. and Mrs. Hurst in the movie. Mrs. Hurst is the other Bingley sister who was always with Caroline Bingley. They kind of made Caroline and Mrs. Hurst one in the same, and got rid of Mr. Hurst all together. • If Jane Austen had thought her character not important, she wouldn’t of created them.

  8. Setting/Costumes/Visual • Man not seen playing a pianoforte • Women trained in arts admirable (Mr. Darcy speaks of this) • Costumes • Houses • Mary carrying sheet music to a ball • An Italian song sung in English • The lighting of the rooms. (too bright for candles) Accurate Inaccurate

  9. Language/Social Values • Languages • Arranged Marriages • Marriages for convenience • Dance couple order • What dances should have been danced to • Social equality (the director tries to portray more than is there) Accurate Inaccurate

  10. Overall • Many historical accuracies • But also historical inaccuracies • Great movie • Well made • Would recommend this as a chick flick • Shows what a long way “love” has come in its importance in our world • Helps current watchers to understand how little power women truly had
