The Modern Day Pride & Prejudice | Bridget Jones's Diary *FIRST TIME WATCH*

[@vexedmum9389]

I always loved how Colin Firth gets to reprise and update his Mr Darcy.. god I love that man.

[@demontrash]

Uhh yes 😍

[@mishynaofficial]

Yeah that's soo iconic

[@rucula4857]

"This is how you know two characters are in their thirties" lmao

[@makingmycloset]

I don't know if you were joking or not but the plot IS actually based on Pride and Prejudice it was intentional by the author of the book, just like Clueless is based on Emma.

[@rachelBrady-ni]

No tf it was NOT. Bridget Jones came out before

[@emmabruh]

@@rachelBrady-ni LOL no, Pride and Prejudice was released in 1810 or something and Bridget Jones came out in 2001, so yeah that’s just not true Also there were versions of the pride and prejudice movie well before the famous 2005 one, so it is in fact based on Pride and Prejudice

[@rachelBrady-ni]

@@emmabruh They literally said themselves it isn't. Leave child

[@emmabruh]

@@rachelBrady-ni okay, my point still stands bc Bridget Jones came out way after Pride and Prejudice was published, maybe read your own comment first

[@rachelBrady-ni]

@@emmabruh Child my point is fact. It isn't based on it. Leave!

“This was the age of low rise jeans. What a shit age.” GURL, you nailed that! 🤣

[@sharpaycutie2]

Low rise jeans were in up until a couple years ago now Eveyone thinks they’re in a 80s flick lol 😆

[@di3486]

High rise is double shit 😖

[@Marcus_Berger1701]

Wait 10 years and every girl wears them again. And those girls will say. "Ughh those ugly wide baggy Jeans" 😂

[@astranoel895]

Great reaction. One of the reasons this gets called the modern Pride and Prejudice, other than the story structure, is also because Colin Firth actually plays Darcy in the BBC 1995 miniseries. And he's brilliant at it! It was so popular that it became a kind of running gag in his career for many years after. He was always in movies either playing a character literally named Darcy, or showing the same kind of behaviours.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

‘All By Myself’ in ‘Bridget Jones’s Diary’ is such a Mood.

[@jennyteach9596]

THE RAPTOR EDIT. IM DONE 😂😂😂

[@user-bn4dk5qb8k]

I really love you guys’ opinions about relationships and girls. It’s like watching movies with good friends. Don’t stop doing videos ; ) and oh, still waiting on your Bridget Jones Baby reaction.

[@demontrash]

Thank you! 😊It's on our list! Hopefully next month! 🤞

[@user-bn4dk5qb8k]

Looking forward to it 🥰 take care and stay safe!

[@alydakoster7801]

Great video, i love that movie i like how it shows the development of the relationship between Bridget and Darcy

[@demontrash]

Thanks!! ❤️ It's one of our favorite rom-coms for sure!

[@msdarby515]

GOOD EYE! This movie IS based on Pride and Prejudice! While Bridget doesn't need to marry for financial reasons, the social pressure to have a man in her life is relentless. In both stories the mothers are ridiculous, and the fathers are both passive. The first meeting between the characters leaves a bad first impression. Both of them become prideful and prejudiced towards the other. (Trivia point: In Austen's early version of the book its title was "First Impressions") Wickham romances Elizabeth and tells her Darcy ruined him financially, Cleaver tells Bridge the fiancé story. And my favorite detail; just when Bridget and Elizabeth thoroughly despise Darcy, both men tell the women that they actually do like them. Pride and Prejudice is one of my favorite books. I've probably seen nearly every film and television performance, including the BBC 6 hour series that stars Colin Firth as Mr. Darcy! Bridget Jones Diary is 💯 a riff of Pride and Prejudice.

[@pjswoman0829]

I love this movie & the 2 sequels! Mark Darcy is so handsome on so many levels!

[@jeffreyweitzman6463]

The days and era of when movies were not afraid of not being politically correct and portraying what life can genuinely be like whilst in the genre of comedy. I saw this so many times at the time as did many, this is really what endeared Rene Zellweger to the masses beyond the US

[@PokhrajRoy.]

I want the innocence of watching this movie. I watch it as often as I can.

[@lyrab1440]

Yay! Another reaction duo! Excited to start watching you guys

[@demontrash]

Yay! Thank you ❤️

[@rumblefish9]

How could you not comment on the part where Daniel sees her granny undies and says "Look, I'm wearing one myself" How? That was the funniest part?!

[@demontrash]

sorry babes ❤️

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Fun Fact: Kate Winslet and Toni Colette were considered for this role.

[@chinyereugwu9431]

That fact wasn't Fun. It was boring.

[@JulietteReacts]

This was so fun! Love how one of you was already a fan and the other hadn't seen it. Makes for a fun dynamic. And it's my favourite thing watching Americans react to British stuff. Hot Fuzz is a popular reaction film on KZbin. Some of my favourite British/British set films are Rocketman, The Prestige, Pride and Prejudice, Death At A Funeral (the original UK version), V For Vendetta, Billy Elliot, Austenland, 1917, Kingsman, Belle, The King's Speech, Atonement etc Any of them would make for a good reaction! :)

it was on this day that i learned bridget jones, one of my fav movies, is based on pride and prejudice.

[@nanzsmith178]

the way i loved this movie so much and love p&p so much and did not even realize this was based off of that until this video... i just thought the author was alluding to the book by making his last name Darcy... i feel dumb lol

[@jinglejangleasmr]

Okay. Okay. Okay. This is my new favorite channel. Thank you. Um. YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU. Trashies only.

[@chefskiss6179]

This reaction vid with the two of you was so cool, can't believe it finally got recommended to me by uTube after all this time. I've checked out a few of yer vids on yer channel now. So are rom-coms gonna be a part of yer channel now? If so, maybe Bridget will send you down the Richard Curtis rabbit hole? Or if I may, maybe consider Moonstruck, Muriel's Wedding, Remains of the Day, Shirley Valentine, Stranger Than Fiction, 84 Charring Cross, Sense and Sensibility, Working Girl, Possession (2002), Nick And Norahs Infinite Playlist, Priceless (2006, I think it's on Amazon Prime right now). - just keep doin what yer doin :)

[@demontrash]

thank you so much for your kind words & recommendations!

[@chefskiss6179]

That was so funny, you two are awesome. Please react to " love actually" if you haven't already

[@henninggirl261]

Renee Zellweger’s weight naturally sits around 100-110 lbs. she’s super petite. The press was super obsessed with it during press for this movie. They also thought she had an eating disorder during Chicago because (surprise, surprise) training for intense dance sequences makes one muscular. So she looked even more lean. 🙄

[@chinyereugwu9431]

Except she later came out and admitted that she did have an eating disorder

[@mia_hqy]

Subscribed!! Love to watch you two watching movies like this🍿. Moving on to the next sequence.

[@ni2077]

omg he called her s spinster, but she´s so young, like 32 is not old, and he is probably older and SINGLE TOO, so he´s the spinster lol, not her

[@meeriann]

Have you read the book? It will make sense how Colin Firth and Hugh Grant were chosen for these two leads actually. I found it hilarious when I found out who’s gonna play them😂 It’s one of THOSE books that deserve the read. And yes at Pride & Prejudice. Also that damn series and Colin. Yumm.

[@juliefudds5140]

just watched this movie for the first time last week and love it already

[@MissTeeFy]

Always single means she's never been married not that she's never dated.

[@mishynaofficial]

Yeah, that's a 2001 movie, by the terms of that time single means "not married"

[@phoenixfriend]

Please, please could you also react to Bridget Jones 2 and 3?

coming soon 😈

[@floppsymoppsy5969]

I love soundtracks, and this one rocks❤ Also y'all should watch: There's Something About Mary...

[@anonymouspeacefulperson6199]

Good grief! It's like seeing a twin!!!😱😮🤷🏻‍♀️🤯💔 😭

[@imasinnerimasaint]

Let's see... we have Colin Firth in 1995 P&P, Hugh Grant and Gemma Jones in 1995 S&S, Embeth Davidtz (Natasha) as Mary Crawford in 1999 MP. Celia Imrie ("Aunt" Pam) isn't in an Austen adapation I don't think but both her lover and her son were (Ben Whitrow as Mr Bennet in 1995 P&P, Angus Imrie as one of Mr Knightley's footmen in 2020 Emma). Quite a bit of crossover and I'm sure I've missed others.

[@amberleverette2189]

Colin Firth will ALWAYS be the ONLY Darcy as far as I am concerned!!!!
