Pride and Prejudice

Hart of Dixie Chicks

This one’s a big one, dear hearts, so feel free to take a turn about the room with us as we fully experience Jessica’s favorite movie, 2005’s Pride & Prejudice. We talk tracking shots, wigs, Emma Thompson, dresses (especially those with hems six inches deep in mud), and hands, of course. Cold, flexed, or otherwise. This whole conversation was Jessica’s dream come true, so get yourself a plateful of exemplary vegetables to keep your strength up.
