How we long for a ball
A review of BRIDE AND PREJUDICE from Asians in Media:
The film is loud, stereotypical, and surprisingly, quite funny. That is of course what stereotypes are for. But the fact that Chadha manages to pull of the humour safely negates some of the bizarre sights, such as Indians singing out loud in English and Baywatch style bodyguards doing Indian dancing.
The AustenBlog staff found the accompanying photos delightful, especially the Mrs. Bennet character in the act of berating her daughters and the snobby-looking Miss Bingley. We are looking forward to the film and are sad to be on the wrong side of the pond to see it anytime soon.
