Original article: "Pride & Prejudice"

Updated does not equal better.

"Cinematographer Roman Osin shoots "Pride & Prejudice" as if it were an action picture..."

So this is a vital adaptation and not a merely faithful one. "Pride and Prejudice" as if it were an action picture � happy thought! Jane Austen has finally been improved and updated. What else can be fixed? I look forward to fresh versions of Shakespeare's sonnets as free verse, or possibly anime. Then maybe they will finally have something to say to the modern person.
