"[Elizabeth Bennet] had her struggle...

Jim Broadbent and Gemma Jones play her parents, initially estranged then reconciled in one of the first movie's most poignant moments; James Callis, Sally Phillips and Shirley Henderson are...
Scripted by Fielding, Blackadder genius Richard Curtis and Andrew Davies, the man behind the very Pride and Prejudice adaptation that influenced Bridget's creation, it's little wonder the movie stormed the homegrown box office charts.
