Continuing from my previous posts ( Chapters 1-27 ), and moving right on to Chapter 28 , which was about Elizabeth Bennet visiting her newly married friend Charlotte  (to her dreaded distant cousin, Mr. Collins, which she rejected his marriage proposal in previous chapters) at Hunsford. This is a very short chapter with a short comparison as far as words/lines mention from novel to film. Read more here...

Some new movies, casting, release dates, and filming news info. featuring some  P&P actors  here that I thought I'd post them all in the same post...

Okay, it's been over a few months since I last posted about this here. Sorry if you've been waiting for the next chapter. I've been super busy that I haven't follow up with this, until now. So, continuing from my previous posts ( Chapters 1-24 ), skipping Chapter's 25-26 (since no dialogue that were similar to the movie's script) and moving right on to Chapter 27 . This chapter's quite different as far as the order of sequence this scene from book appeared in the film. If you have read the book and watch the 2005 film, you would know and noticed how this scene in the book appeared much later in the movie. The scene happened after Elizabeth went to Rosings (and she was about to go to Pemberley), but in the book it happened just before Rosings. Also, the lines/dialogue are quite similar (though a bit worded differently, but similar in meaning) from book to film, but there's a particular line in the book in this chapter that a different character said...
