Taking advantage of my mother’s home video library on a visit home for the hoildays, I decided to treat myself to an old fashioned movie marathon. I decided on a double feature with cartoon and film short to start (sans Pathé news)…
Movie Marathon Entry the Fourth:
The light tone of this classic adaptation puts it page and cover in my book above more recent sentimental adaptations aimed at a certain audience. The dialogue is crisp and bright and just witty enough, on target, as it were. Laurence Olivier shines as always, this time as the inimitable Darcy.
