Female stories and female voices are very often missed out on, completely. Very often in every section of culture women are lost. Every actress will say the exact same thing to you. We’re all looking for these interesting, inspiring, complex creatures, but they’re very difficult to find. It’s got to come from female writers, from female producers, from female directors –  they’re the ones with the passion to tell stories and go out and get the money. Possibly I should be throwing my hat in that ring. It means putting the producer’s hat on, not just the actor’s. Maybe that’s something I should do.                                Happy Birthday, Keira Christina Knightley (March 26, 1985)

get to know me: [1/10] movies: pride and prejudice ♡

If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes have not changed, but one word from you will silence me forever. If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.

Pride and Prejudice (2005) || 5/? “Miss Eliza Bennet,” said Miss Bingley, “despises cards. She is a great reader, and has no pleasure in anything else.” “I deserve neither such praise nor such censure,” cried Elizabeth; “I am not a great reader, and I have pleasure in many things.”

Miss Elizabeth, I have struggled in vain and I can bear it no longer. These past months have been a torment. I came to Rosings with the single object of seeing you. I had to see you. I have fought against my better judgment, my family’s expectation, the inferiority of your birth, my rank and circumstance, all these things and I’m willing to put them aside and ask you to end my agony. I love you. Most ardently.

You are too generous to trifle with me. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes are unchanged, but one word from you will silence me on this subject for ever.

► Film Facts ➛ Pride & Prejudice (2005) ღ Matthew Macfadyen (Mr. Darcy) has very poor eyesight. In the misty morning shot, the director, Joe Wright, was behind the camera waving a red flag so Macfadyen knew where to walk.

                            There is a stubbornness about me that never can                                              bear to be frightened at the will of others.                                My courage always rises at every attempt to intimidate me.

”… After walking several miles in a leisurely manner, and too busy to know anything about it, they found at last on examining their watches that it was time to be at home…

MY DEAR LIZZY, where can you have been walking to?” was a question which Elizabeth received from Jane as soon as she entered the room, and from all the others when they sat down to table. She had only to say, in reply, that they had wandered about till she was beyond her own knowledge. She colored as she spoke; but neither that nor anything else awakened a suspicion of the truth.The evening passed quietly, unmarked by anything extraordinary. The acknowledged lovers talked and laughed; the unacknowledged were silent. Darcy was not of a disposition in which happiness overflows in mirth; and Elizabeth, agitated and confused, rather knew that she was happy than felt herself to be so; for, besides the immediate embarrassment, there were other evils before her. She anticipated what would be felt in the family when her situation became known; she was aware that no one liked him but Jane; and even feared that with the others it was a dislike which not all his fortune and consequence might do away.”
