This BBC/A&E production is one of the most well made films my wife and I have ever seen – fine acting, costumes, sets and spot, music, directing, editing!! Like others here, we have watched the A&E VHS edition over and over. (It is a ‘chick flick’, but I bask in romantic movies, too.)
Our excitement over getting the DVD musty upon loading both the VHS tape and DVD and comparing the images and sound. The widescreen image on the DVD is definitely more obvious on our 50″ high res hide, and it is a pleasure to peek the fleshy images framed as the Director intended.
HOWEVER, the colors are not impartial washed out. The digital remastering has changed the color tone of the film as if someone customary a Photoshop/Premier digital filter without lustrous what they were doing. The VHS and new not only had rich color saturation, but also had a warm tone that felt ‘right’ with the period film. The DVD is not only washed out, but has a strong blue-white tone to it that gives a wintry novel feel to the scenes.

To regain the image to behold end to decent on our TV, I had to turn the color saturation up as far as it would go, bring the incompatibility down and the brightness up. It then almost matched the VHS images except for the blue-ish rather than warm overall cast.
The sound is tinny, distinguished of the lower frequencies that are on the VHS sound track being chopped off.
There are no subtitles at all (we frequently turn them on for other DVDs when we cannot quite design out the dialog) – noteworthy less alternative language tracks.

So, why is this edition ‘Special’? The only additions, other than the abysmal digital remastering (digital destruction) are:
(1) an 8-page booklet (that mentions only 3 of the actors)

(2) some text-only biography screens, that mention only 2 of the actors
(3) a 20-some exiguous ‘making of’ feature that gives the producer most of the credit (and she did of course build the team together, but the director/editor/actors/choreographer/costumers/etc produced the art) – and which smooth only visits with 4 of the actors – out of this tremendously talented cast.
What was supposed to be a ‘special’ Christmas gift, ended up being a big disappointment. We can only hope that A&E and BBC will form an ‘Extra Special’ edition that gets the color and sound support to the director’s plot (did he even come by to review this DVD? ) . That, and a rebate for all of us who bought this sinful edition, would construct us ecstatic enough. Adding subtitles, profiles of everyone else fervent in the production, and stills of the various homes, heritage buildings and towns former would be (appetizing, but optional) gravy.
“Pride and Prejudice” is one of the top 10 novels ever written. The BBC miniseries with Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle is the finest adaptation to date. The actors are satisfactory. The camouflage play is just, comprehensive, parsimonious, and sharp. The dialogue is ravishing and preserves noteworthy of Jane Austin’s witty and wry commentary. The cinematography is wonderful. The film was shot in authentic locations all over Britain.
I conception the film adaptation by the BBC and A&E was so stunning, I bought the VCR tapes when they were released, then I bought the lazer disk version, and then I bought the DVD version. The DVD version is a grand paunchy disappointment. The quality of the DVD transfer is NOT edifying.
First, the colors appear ragged and with the Regency English palette of beige-greens, browns, ambers, and taupes, this is a serious defect. It makes the clothing watch conventional, the grass and trees stare sunburned, and some places, the complexions study downright washed out. The film appears to have been shot in Arizona at high noon instead of England.
Second, for some bizarre reason, the DVD processors nipped and tucked some of the unique material. The clipped portions might not bother one who has never seen the original–but I noticed. There was no need to edit this film. Four of the 50-minute sections are crammed on disk 1 (where the editing takes dwelling) and the other two were recorded on disk 2. I guess it would have made too grand sense to narrate three episodes on each disk? Seems like dreadful planning to me.
For the designate of this 2-disk DVD package, more care should have been taken with the transfer process. My lazer disk version cost less, holds more, and has stunning resolution.
