Pride & Prejudice | 20th Anniversary

A romance ahead of its time.
Is a first impression a window into the soul, or merely a reflection of our own prejudice?

In the verdant English countryside at the turn of the 19th century, a woman’s future is a fragile commodity, secured only by a profitable marriage. In this world of rigid social rules lives Elizabeth Bennet, a fiercely intelligent and spirited young woman who believes her sharp judgment can see past the era’s shallow pretensions. Her conviction is immediately tested by the arrival of the aloof and impossibly wealthy Mr. Darcy, a man she instantly dismisses as the embodiment of aristocratic arrogance. What unfolds is a luminous and breathtakingly romantic story, not just of a sparkling battle of wits, but of the humbling journey of two people shedding their own pride to see each other for who they truly are.
