[@kellennicholson4488]

The american pride and prejudice is a disgrace, stick with the BBC mini-series, it's far more engaging and the performances are actually....not complete shit. And I don't even like any adaptation nor the book itself, so this is coming from someone with no bias in terms of "one is more accurate"

[@noosaibazahrah1318]

ok dave is amazing and it offers HAPPINESS

[@DaAcorn]

I recommend watching Diary of a wimpy kid 2, I always found the first to have a really disjointed pace and don’t entirely stick the landing with everything they do. But friends of mine the don’t like the first, still liked the second. The second does a lot more leg work in actually providing a plot you can relate to. There’s always a chance you’ll like it more than the first as well. Can’t say the same for the third and especially not the fourth.

[@strangersontheinternet]

I highly recommend the chinese movie „Us and Them“ on Netflix. This is such a raw, stunning, amazing and realistic story about two people as they love each other, break up, reunite years later and spend a day together reminiscing their past. 10/10 recommended....

[@bookaufman9643]

I'm not sure if you've read the book pride and prejudice or if this is your first contact with this classic. This movie has been made many times and this is by far the best version of it. But the crowded field of movie versions are adaptations of this novel has produced some other good versions as well. This is the best performance in any movie from Keira Knightley. You actually become immersed in the world of this film and then the characters hopes and aspirations. 8 and 1/2 out of 10.
