All Freepers should go and see Pride and Prejudice. It's a PG movie with lots of old-fashioned sexual yearning without any blatent exhibitionism. It has a lot of comedy, satire on English family life, excellent acting, and a wonderful original soundtrack renminiscent of Mozart and Beethoven. And, fellas, there are several great manly men in this film too.

Or better yet, read the novel which should be read by anyone who is fluent in English.

Who cares about "manly men". The stunningly beautiful Keira Knightly is in it!

I've tried to get the wife to go to this one, but she is a Jane Austen freak, and if they don't do it "right", I'll hear a litany of complaints about it....

She did like Sense and Sensibilty (with some reservations).

I has to be a chick thing, because I don't think any man could stomach this movie. Wife drug me to see Pride and Prejudice and I spent the entire time secretly wishing that the theater would catch fire so I could be trampled to death beneath an exit sign.

I saw P&P a week or so ago. It's a very good remake, and the characters did a splendid job.

Um....er......thanks and all, but........maybe that should have been a heads-up to the girls rather than we 'fellas'. Ahem.
