On walking....
"To walk three miles, or four miles, or five miles, or whatever it is, above her ankles in dirt, and alone, quite alone!
What could she mean by it?
It seems to me to show an abominable sort of conceited independence, a most country-town indifference to decorum."

Becoming Jane..... Austen
First off, I should say that I am not into movies.
I watch one every now and then and have a few faves but mostly I don't bother. Movies tend to bore me. I think I have movie ADD.
Anyhoo, I thought about checking out Becoming Jane but I didn't really....check it out (a somewhat awkward sentence).
I read about it and watched a few clips but I doubt I will watch Becoming Jane anytime soon.
But that does not keep me from going to my fave place...youtube and watching a variety of scenes.
Check these scenes out. Maybe you'll go see the movie and tell me about it.
Before getting this movie on DVD, you can read about it at Wikipedia which seems to have a good plot synopsis or at Imdb.com which will give all of the pertinent film facts.
Ooooo, I forgot to mention that the movie Becoming Jane is more or less based on the book Becoming Jane Austen written by Jon Spence.
Enjoy the clips!

A Pride and Prejudice Character Map
This is fabulous! Especially for those who are new to P and P or who are just easily confused. Not that I didn't already know all of the relationships (I ought to know by this time) but it's interesting to see it plotted out. Of course, it all revolves around Elizabeth and Darcy.
I found this at Murderati.com .
