COMMENTARY

is it just me?

I’d almost be heartened by the addition of some great actors to the upcoming Keira Knightley version of Pride & Prejudice (full cast list here), except that I just came across these photos from the filming. They seem to be going for a long-waisted 1790s look, which is okay given that Austen started writing First Impressions then, but what’s with the very dowdy looking gowns, and what is UP with Knightley’s hair?
