Enjoy my take on Jane Austin's classic--all sixteen panels of it. Ride and Prejudice. Remember, you saw it here first.
(Salem) - My wife is a wonderfully complex woman. She is interested in so many things--some bizarrely juxtaposed. She likes samurai movies and Jane Austin.
We've watched and enjoyed Yojimbo, The Seven Samurai, The Samurai Trilogy and others repeatedly. But I can't tell you how many movie adaptations of Pride and Prejudice we've watched together.
Mr. Darcy and all the various Janes iterations (but not the zombie version) have slid back and forth across my field of attention so many times that I could create my own version.
Perhaps there are too many versions already and no one needs yet-another adaptation to muddy Miss Austin's most enduring work. Still I'm tempted to at least begin the story, set the time and place, present a proof-of-concept for my take on the characters.
I do love the early 19th century, but why not set the story in a different era. Not today. That's too obvious. The 60's were a marvelous time. Jane becomes Sharon. Mr. Darcy, in my modest adaptation, is not named, although Sharon manages to call him a name in the last panel.
Enjoy my take on Jane Austin's classic--all sixteen panels of it. Ride and Prejudice. Remember, you saw it here first.
