The most delightful character


     Having seen the movie Pride and Prejudice twice, I do love the unique character Elizabeth Bennet who I have never seen before.  As one of the most popular characters in English literature, Elizabeth Bennet lacks extraordinary physical beauty, which makes audience pay more attention on her unique character.  Firstly, her wonderful wit always leaves a deep impression on the audiences at first sight.  She has an infectious smile and a sharp wit when she was talking with others.  Her conversation sparkled with her own subtle blend of wit and charm.  With her brilliant wit, she can form the arguments, quips and even rebuttals perfectly and powerfully.  Secondly, Miss Bennet is an icon of modern femininity, a budding feminist who advocates equalities between the sexes.  Although she is not good at playing music and dancing, she is interested in reading, which helps her become intelligent and have an independent spirit.  She does not care how others’ comment on her behaviour and still holds a clear view of what she wants to do with her life.  It may be one of the chief reasons she is attractive to Mr. Darcy.  In addition, Miss Elizabeth shows obsequiousness in dealings with Darcy and Lady Catherine de Bourgh.  While she is facing the powerful and domineering Lady Catherine de Bourgh, her forthright and brave rebuttal wins Lady’s trust.  In closing, Elizabeth Bennet is the most delightful character I have seen.

  1. Although the black-and-white movie has given me a deep impression,I'm still looking forward to watch the new version of this movie.I think most of us will consider Elizabeth as the favourite character.Mr.Darcy didn't impress me much.By the way,I think the actress in the movie is rather beautiful.haha!
