Sure, 2005’s "Pride & Prejudice" has been sitting right there at home to watch with my Netflix subscription (until it leaves at the end of the month anyway), but we had a feeling going out of our way to see the movie’s 20th anniversary re-release in theaters would be a unique experience we wouldn’t forget, and we were absolutely right. But, we weren't expecting Donald Sutherland’s performance as Mr. Bennet to be the thing about it that we walked away wanting to talk about the most.
We can’t believe Joe Wright’s "Pride and Prejudice" is two decades old because the movie doesn’t feel like it has aged a day, except for seeing its incredible cast in their younger years, of course. Our recent in-theater viewing experience cemented for me how timeless and exquisite it is, making it absolutely one of the great movies based on classic literature in our book. While we went into it ready to be dazzled by Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy’s romance (including that iconic hand flex), the way the filmmakers intended, instead, we want to take some time to appreciate the late Donald Sutherland’s part in the movie.
