Since it was released in 1995, the BBC's Pride and Prejudice miniseries has become one of the most well-known adaptations of Austen's works. And for good reason. Everything about the series is exquisitely crafted from the script to the costumes to the casting. Much has been made of Firth bringing a whole new level of smouldering sexiness to Mr. Darcy, but Jennifer Ehle's Elizabeth is equally revolutionary. She imbues Elizabeth with all the confidence and stubborness that makes her and Darcy a perfect match onscreen and in the book.
