Joe Wright is a bit peevish about the emphasis “Pride & Prejudice” fans place on Mr. Darcy.

“They always call it Colin Firth or Olivier’s Pride and Prejudice, but I want people to call this Keira Knightly’s Pride and Prejudice.  It’s Lizzie’s story. Mr. Darcy gives men a quality to aspire to. The best qualities in men are generally seen as feminine: gentleness, kindness, thoughtfulness. Elizabeth teaches him how to be a proper man”.

    LOL this. I hate it when girls say Mr Darcy is perfect or that he would love every girl out there. He is flawed,...
