The Importance of Being Darcy
The Arts Telegraph has published an interview with Matthew Macfayden, who plays Mr. Darcy in the upcoming version of “Pride and Prejudice.”
The one thing that our AustenBlog Readers were able to garner from this interview is that Mr. McFayden is no great fan of our dear Jane, or, it seems, of Colin Firth.
We have concluded, therefore, that either he’s being completely honest, or that he’s simply staying in character. (We hope it’s the latter.)

Colin Firth hadn’t read the book before P&P2 either, so have faith.

this film will sink like a stone. It’s much too soon after the 1995 version which was the best one. Nothing could beat that and Kiera Knightley will finally fall flat on her face.
