“And then the music that starts at the window you´ll recognised as being the music that we first hear when we enter Longbourn at the very, very beginning of the film. And the reason why I used the same piece of music is because it would remind her of home. That finding the person you´re supposed to be with is like coming home. And that, even though this house is so completely different from her house, it´s the same spirit, the same music moves there”.
(Joe Wright, Director)
Do you know what song Georgiana is playing when she meets Elizabeth? I know that you are an expert on P&P so I thought you might know. Thank you sooo much!
AnonymousThe first time Lizzie sees Georgiana, behind the door, she´s playing “Dawn”, the same piece that sounds at the opening scene and the one Elizabeth plays so badly in Rosings (take a look at my next post). The second time they meet she´s playing “Georgiana”.
My older posts about the soundtrack:
“Macfadyen’s Darcy is wounded, boyish, broken. Stiff with inhibition, his face misshapen, his eyes eerie distant chips of light blue, he is magnificent. His sexuality is far more understated than Firth’s, but no less powerful.”
(Press review)
“You have to know what the rules are, you have to know the etiquette in order to rebel from it. She puts her elbow on the table, she slumps, she laughs without covering her mouth. It’s fun to know when your breaking the rules and when you’re not”.
(Keira Knightley)
Do you have anything on Joe and Rosamunds relationship, or do you know anything about them? I know they were together, even engaged? If I've understood it right they got together during the filming of P&P? Do you know if they ever spoke about each other during filming, or during the press for the film? Any mention of their relationship/love in the directors commentary, or did maybe Joe speak of her?
AnonymousLetters.
“So many letters in a Jane Austen book, wich are difficult things to dramatise really. I think letters are really un-cinematic and quite boring in terms of film.”
(Joe Wright, Director)
“Wickham is much more obviously attractive than Darcy. He knows about how to chat to women, he is self-deprecating and modest wich is, of course, terribly attractive, he looks gorgeous in his uniform, and those aren´t of course Darcy´s qualities at all.”
(Deborah Moggach, Screenwriter)
Primero que nada, me encanta tu blog!!!!No pude parar hasta verlo entero! (y me tomó varios días que disfruté mucho!) Puedes subir algunas imágenes o información sobre Lizzy y Mr Wickham? Me parece super interesante como ella trata de "evitar" los sentimientos hacia Mr. Darcy enfocándose en el apuesto soldado...tienen tomas muy bonitas. Además tengo entendido que la historia de ellos dos siguió fuera de pantalla, no? Me encanta el trabajo que Joe Wright hizo con esta película, es hermosa!!!!
Anonymous¡Un millón de gracias :)! Eres muy amable y significa mucho para mí. Sí, Keira y Rupert Friend fueron pareja muchos años. Es verdad que tengo al Sr. Wickham un poco olvidado, supongo que por solidaridad con Lizzie :). Así que te dedico el próximo post.

Do you know how was Rosamund and Simon's relationship while shooting the movie? I mean, do you if it was awkward or something cause I couldn't find the info and on the pics they just seem really comfortable around each other...
AnonymousRosamund and men in this film, that´s a very interesting thing. Take a look at these old posts:
