If we modern folk find Lizzy’s family embarrassing, then in the Regency era among the upper class this behavior was social suicide only salvaged by the fact that Jane is a great beauty and a polite lady while Lizzy is witty, pretty, and also mostly proper.
The secondhand embarrassment I get from her family is on another level. Darcy had a point - although he shouldn't have made it during the proposal lol.
It was a cute touch that Mary brought her music with her, and the way she marches to the pianoforte before Bingley could finish his sentence. Also Mr. Bennet's line, "Thank you Mary, you have delighted us long enough" is one of my favorites.
@@A_keoDarcy be like: I can't even right now. My social anxiety is rendering me unable to speak. Bingley: You have to deal with it, Darcy. Ask one of them to dance already. *Mrs. Bennet in the background complaining that Darcy is a proud jerk* Darcy: This is just making it worse. No. *walks off*
I could feel the tension of embarrassment from this whole scene. Even as a teenager I cringed the whole time I still cringe and hide behind my pillow 😂😅
3:10 Darcy was an arse too. Even if Mr. Colins broke the rules by talking to Mr. Darcy without having been introduced, Darcy could have dealt with it with more grace. Leaving someone while he it talking to you is extremely rude.
Did he actually walk away in the book? In the Kiera Knightly adaptation I remember he just kind of stood there, Elizabeth left and so it was impossible to see what happened after that
С точки зрения сегодняшнего дня Дарси поступил очень заносчиво. Что в этом такого, что Коллинз, даже будучи отвратным, подошёл к Дарси и по-доброму поговорил с ним? Унижающие человеческое достоинство традиции.
The song Mary sings in this scene is "Ombra mai fu" from Handel's opera "Serse" (Xerxes). In the original, Serse sings to a tree, praising its vast beauties. Here are the original words with English translation: Ombra mai fu di vegetabile, cara ed amabile, soave più. Never was a shade of any plant dearer and more lovely, or more sweet.
It's really only the last scene that salvages Mrs. Bennett. She knew to give Mr. Bingley and Jane enough time to connect. Considering what children needed to endure back then, we're lucky that our reputations aren't dependent on our families.
Актриса, играющая Мери прекрасно справилась со своей ролью. Очень натурально и комично. Роли второго плана - блестящи. Это понимаешь после нескольких просмотров. Всё Сошлось!
Poor Lizzie and Jane. As much as they love their family and are fiercely loyal to them, they can be quite an embarrassment, especially Mrs. Bennet whom you would think would be more mature. I also agree with some in the comments about Darcy having a point regarding the Bennet family behavior. As harsh as he was in saying this during the proposal, Darcy was giving a very blunt assessment of how awful the family's social behavior was. Even Lizzie, upon self-reflection, had to admit how embarrassing their behavior was. I do feel for Mary though. I think she has the most potential to become a more mature person if given the right guidance.
They picked the absolute wrong actress for Caroline Bingely. This woman is downright hideous, so every interaction with Darcey seemed ridiculous and like she literally had no chance. In the book Caroline was a snobbish girl, but she was also described as very handsome/pretty. The 2006 adaption with Kiera had better casting from a looks perspective.
I must disagree with this thought, she looks so fine and based on what I have read in some comments she is the great great great (idk how many great) niece of Jane Austen! Well The google confirmed this too.. she's really splendid for me..
I can’t believe Darcy actually went through with the marriage with this level of embarrassment 😂. He must have truly loved her.
Alison Steadman did an unbeatable job as Mrs Bennett. She's so embarrassing, I wish the earth would swallow me up just from watching this!
And she has a more annoying voice than Fran!

I didn't see any "great beauty" and "prettiness", I saw two very ugly women playing Elizabeth and Jane. However I agree about the social suicide.
Jane is not in the same league as Elizabeth Bennet.
@@JayAr709 Hey, let’s not disparage Jane. She’s intelligent too just not a wit.

I'm dying by 2nd embarrassment. Poor Lizzie and Jane
3:28 the dog barking while Mary sings 🤣

Bless Lizzie's patience, I can't believe she didn't walk out on her family even once.
Thank god I wasn’t born in this time period. I’m far too socially awkward and blunt to be in these situations. 😂😫
Same

Let's be real, we'd die young in a chimney sweeping accident.
Poor Mary is going through her cringe teen years. It gets better, Mary. It gets better!!!
LOL!
The funny thing about Mary's preformance is the song is not even party music.
It’s a funeral song.... when it’s properly sung.
I didn't know that!!! Oh dear. Poor Mary. @@Nikita-qb7xd

The words Mary sings in this scene are not the original ones. This is "Ombra mai fu" from Handel's opera "Serse" (Xerxes).

Oh my. The actor for mr collins - where did they find this man! He is terrific 😄
The "odious" Mr Collins (not Dr)
I hate to say that I understand this type of embarrassment first hand and that is why I love this soo much .So unfortunate grrr

In the book he listens, nods and then leaves. Nothing quite so rude.
Exactly. There might have been social rules and there is courtesy.

NOT if you hadn’t been introduced. It is abominable rudeness to converse without an introduction. All Darcy could do was walk away.
I am dying for Lizzy
Goodness gracious, the cringe is real hahaha
Omg. I'm feeling for her
Thanks for uploading these scenes from the best adaptation of P&P.

How she Embarasses...😱
Ha ha Jane Austin’s humour is funny

Миссис Беннет очень хорошо подсобила Бингли сделать предложение Джейн. Он был даже рад, что все ушли, и с пониманием отнесся к попыткам миссис Беннет.
Oh my gosh that singing was atrocious🙄🙄🙄🙄🤣🤣🤣

Fortunately, Bingley will someday be able to stick Mrs. Bennet in some dowager home - likely surrounded by a high stone wall funded by Mr. Darcy.
I thought winking is a bit too much! Very embarrassing mother!
Exactly why you *can't* say Darcy was wholly in the wrong. Her family is enough to make anyone sink down off their seat under the table.
Teaching Mama feminism. You do not thank him for asking you to dance.
Oh my god 😮
Mr. Collins should have been with Mary.

Hideous? That seems like a bit of an intense description for a woman who looks plain at worst lol. She looks fine to me.

Anna Chancellor is stunning! and smashes the role.
She's beautiful. And a good actress. And Austen's great great...... niece
Not hideous, but I never found the actress attractive either, she has sharp features. She usually plays antagonists in movies.
