【正文】 herinlaw, indeed, and of course she will be always at Pemberley with you.” (Jane Austen, page 32)He listened to her with perfect indifference.From the above conversation we can see that Miss Bingley was very jealous of Elizabeth. She looked down upon Elizabeth’s middleclass status and lack of social connections. The film doesn’t mention this conversation, for the time of the film is limited and this scene is unnecessary. We can see that Miss Bingley plays just a secondary role in the story. In order to stress the obstacles between Elizabeth and Darcy, the author designs such a character. This episode can be neglected in the film, it won’t impede the development of the plot.In the novel, one evening, Elizabeth joins their party in the drawing room. She observes Miss Bingley piling pliments upon Darcy as he writes to his sister. The conversation turns to Bingley’s style of letter writing and then to Bingley’s impetuous behavior, which entangles Elizabeth and Darcy in an argument over the virtues of accepting the advice of friends. Afterward, Miss Bingley plays “a lively Scotch air” on the pianoforte, and Elizabeth again refuses to dance with Darcy. Her refusal only increases his admiration, and he considers that “were it not for the inferiority of her connections, he should be in some danger.” Miss Bingley, observing his attraction, bees jealous and spends the following day making fun of Elizabeth’s family, instigating Darcy to imagine them connected to his proud and respectable status. The film doesn’t mention the above episodes, either, but it doesn’t matter at all. In the film, we also can easily guess that Miss Bingley loves Darcy from her movement when she stays with Darcy. The following episode in the film is wonderful which the novel doesn’t emphasize. It is their third appearance in the film. The following night, Miss Bingley is in similar fashion, trying to attract Darcy’s attention: first by reading, then by criticizing the foolishness of balls, and finally by walking about the room. Her figure is elegant, and she walks well。 and turns to Elizabeth. Only when she asks Elizabeth to walk with her, however, does Darcy look up, and then the two women discuss the possibility of finding something to ridicule in his character. He states that his only fault is resentment—“my good opinion once lost is lost forever.” Elizabeth replies that it is hard to laugh at a “propensity to hate every body,” and Miss Bingley, observing Elizabeth’s monopolization of Darcy’s attention once again, insists on music. This episode has also been described in the book, but it is only a usual one, nothing special. The film does emphasize it. Even if the time of the film is limited, it spends about five minutes on this episode in revealing the inner world of Miss Bingley and Darcy. In the book, one morning, Elizabeth and Mrs. Gardiner visit Pemberley to call on Ms. Darcy. Bingley’s sisters are both present。 he admits that he did. She then repeats Wickham’s accusations and declares that she thinks that Darcy is proud and selfish and that marriage to him is utterly unthinkable. Darcy grimly departs.In the film, Darcy confesses his love to Elizabeth outside the church and the day is rainy. She is listening to the Bible in the church with Darcy’s cousin Colonel Fitzwilliam while Darcy is just also there. In the process of their talking, Fitzwilliam tells Elizabeth why Darcy separated Mr. Bingley and Jane. She glances sidelong at Darcy when hearing this. At the moment, their sights meet. Elizabeth runs out the church at once in the rainy day. Darcy follows her at a rush. He thinks it is a good chance to express his affection, so he does it. The words he says in the film are the same as in the novel. This rainy scene designed in the film adds a romantic atmosphere and deepens the audiences’ impression.Darcy’s proposal is the turning point of Pride and Prejudice. Until he asks her to marry him, Elizabeth’s main preoccupation with Darcy centers on dislike。he defends himself by arguing that Jane’s attachment to his friend was not yet strong enough to lead to heartbreak. He adds that he did not wish Bingley to involve himself with the social encumbrance of marrying into the Bennet family, with its lack of both wealth and propriety. In relation to Wickham, the letter states that Darcy did provide for him after his father’s death and that the root of their quarrel lay in an attempt by Wickham to elope with Darcy’s sister, Georgiana, in the hopes of obtaining her fortune.Elizabeth is stunned by this revelation, and while she dismisses some of what Darcy says about Jane and Mr. Bingley, his account of Wickham’s doings causes her to reappraise the officer and decide that she was probably wrong to trust him. Darcy’s letter begins a humbling process for both Elizabeth and him, which result in a maturation of each of their attitudes toward the other. In Darcy’s case, the rejection of his proposal strikes a blow to his pride and pels him to respond to Elizabeth’s anger. The resulting letter reveals to Elizabeth how she misjudged both him and Wickham. With the extent for her mistaken prejudice suddenly apparent, she is humbled enough to begin to look at Darcy in a new light.The letter – for the novel, in the film it is impossible to present it, but we can guess what the letter said from the following episodes in the film.Elizabeth’s visit to Pemberley constitutes a critical step in her progress toward marrying Darcy. The arrival of Darcy himself further encourages Elizabeth’s change of heart. Humbled by her rejection of his marriage proposal, Darcy has altered his conduct toward her and bee a perfect gentleman. This courteous behavior both illustrates his love for her and pels the growth of her estimation of him. His ability to overe his pride in much the same way that Elizabeth overes her prejudice. Elizabeth’s rejection of him has not caused him to give up and that he may propose again under different
