7 takes on Pride and Prejudice

Vote for your favourite Mr. Darcy and Miss Bennet

Last Updated: Jan. 21, 2013

Jane Austen's 1813 novel of manners Pride and Prejudice revolves around clever and headstrong Elizabeth Bennet and the proud and aloof Fitzwilliam Darcy in Georgian England. The couple have a series of miscommunications before they eventually (spoiler alert) find love. The book, initially published on Jan. 28, 1813, in three hardcover volumes and priced at 18 shillings, was an immediate success.

Since then, the story has been the inspiration for various films ranging from the classic to the modern to the Bollywood spectacle. Read more about each version and then vote for your favourite interpretation.
