Summary: Unbelievably Romantic
Comment: This is so wonderfully romantic. I am a huge P&P fan, but Richard Armitage knocked me right off my Darcy obsession...at least for awhile!!! This is my favorite movie of all time. Bar none.

Summary: North and South
Comment: Elizabeth Gaskell who wrote the book in the early 1800s that this movie was created from is an exciting find for fans of Charles Dickens and Jane Austin. She treats all of her characters with humor and compassion, and this movie is a moving adaptation of her work. Beautiful and historically accurate costuming. This movie is a new favorite.

Summary: my new favorite
Comment: [...]It totally sucked me in and I ended up watching the whole thing! Of course, since youtube isn't exactly the preferred way of viewing films, I had to get the DVD. I'm a total diehard Pride and Prejudice fan (the BBC version, obviously), and I must say that this is a serious rival for my affections. It's a little darker and more somber than P&P, but is equally well-done. The cinematography is beautiful, artistic and effective and really conveyed that period in time, while the score perfectly captures the mood of the piece. And of course, it goes without saying that all the acting is superb. They really chose the right people to play each and every character. Without knowing anything about this piece, I found the storyline to be completely compelling and engaging, with humor, tragedy and drama taking place in an uncertain and exciting time in British history. I'm not going to give any of the story away, so you'll just have to see for yourself! BBC does it again. Just wish they gave it more exposure-it's definitely worthy of it! Wonderful film.

Summary: Fantastic period drama
Comment: I loved Pride and Prejudice,with Matthew McFayden as Mr. Darcy,but Richard Armitage is outstanding as Thornton and I have to rate this movie over Pride and Prejudice. It was so realistic,I actually felt I was transported back in time. It is truely a classic love story,of two people who are both stubborn,but love each other and wont give in until it is almost too late. Margaret does not understand the ways of the north in manufacturing and Thornton does not understand the ways of the south, which is more of a carefree lifestyle and not so harsh.The acting was superb and the location was at a old cotton mill in England which made it very factual. I loved it and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys period drama stories. It is a masterpiece for all to see......
