How does one novel arouse so much interest and continues to inspire so many film producers? What makes one film better than another and to which extent can the story be reinterpreted? This book gives an analysis of three different films and their producer s interpretation of Jane Austen s Pride and Prejudice . Going from a very faithful version of the original story, to a completely different location, time setting and cultural situation; to a third that deals with a totally different angle, showing a modern young girl entering and changing the whole story. This book is not only about how the original story has been interpreted, but it also explains how the influence of three parameters in film-making: life experience, cinematic style and the public s expectations, can give a personal touch to such a well-known novel.
