Episode 44: The BSA’s of ”Pride & Prejudice” (2005)

We're receiving every Bennet in the country this week as we count down our Top 5 BSA's of "the Keira Knightley" version of "Pride & Prejudice"! We explore the nuances of period pieces that give Colin pause, Emma Thompson's important contributions to the script, so many sweaty bangs, the gruesome twosome of Kitty and Lyddie, and of course all of our favorite performances--from the subtle cattiness of Kelly Reilly to the batty brilliance of Brenda Blethyn. (To say nothing of Judi Dench!) Also, how do you pronounce the name Rosamund Pike? We also discuss Donald Sutherland's laughter through tears, a Pride & Prejudice bus tour, movie tropes we hate, the problem with ren faires, Miranda Richardson, Olivia Colman's best moments in Broadchurch, a bloodsucking Tilda Swinton, and one of the most un-difficult people to love.
