ANSWERS
P&P Characters: Fool - Mr. Darcy's first name is Fitzwilliam...Matthew is Macfadyen, the Darcysexylicious actor who played him, of course; Fact; Fool - They are not twins. Kitty is two years older than Lydia (though they looked and acted like they were...they might as well, don't they? lol); Fact; Fool - Lizzie didn't say that line it was her older sister Jane who did. Jane said it when Mr. Bingley proposed to her. Lizzie, on the other hand, only said to Mr. Darcy, "Well, then...your hands are cold."
P&P Locations: Fact; Fool - Mr. Bingley let a house/property at Netherfield Park; Fact - Netherfield Hall is another name for Netherfield at Netherfield Park in the P&P 2005 film; Fool - Hunsford is home to Mr. & Mrs. Collins not the Bennets; Fool - Lady Catherine's estate is in Kent not Hertfordshire.
P&P Music: Fool - Georgiana played "Dawn"; Fact; Fact; Fool - Lizzie and Darcy danced to "A Postcard to Henry Purcell" not "Another Dance"; Fact.
P&P Actors: Fool - Keira Knightley was only an Oscar Nominee for her Elizabeth Bennet role in P&P. She did not win an Oscar, unfortunately; Fact; Fact; Fool - Carey Mulligan's film debut was Pride & Prejudice; Fool - Jena Malone was 19 (not 15), almost 20 years old when she was filming and played Lydia Bennet in P&P film.
This was fun! The questions about the music & actors were a bit more tricky even though I love the soundtrack I've never really paid attention to which track was playing when.

Miss Laurie, thanks for playing the game and for trying to answer all of them. You did pretty good with the characters and Locations. The music and actors' parts were a bit tricky, indeed. Nice try though. You tried and at least got 2-3 right in those parts...
