Zach is joined by journalist and podcaster Corinne Westeman (Reel Nerds Podcast) for an excursion through Ma and Pa Bennet’s Betrothal Barn as they dive deep into MGM’s 1940 adaptation of PRIDE AND PREJUDICE.
After you have entered with hilarious music cues like Mr. Collin’s, sit yourself down and listen as the two discuss the fandom surrounding Austen’s work and adaptations of it, learn more about the films long and at times rocky production, crack into an oft told tale’s plot from the stand point of Hollywood condensing and re-imagining, ponder the things that feel slightly out of step with our two leads, and wax philosophical on the influence of the film as the first in a long line of “Costume Films” such as ‘P&P’ that carry on to this very day.
