I love Pride & Prejudice (2005) so much because Matthew Macfadyen did the most of any adaptation's Mr. Darcy to subtly convey the character's inner turmoil and emotion throughout the entire movie.

You can see him internally screaming at himself for being so awkward around Elizabeth, or for going too far when he lashes out/speaks too frankly. You can see his longing to be with Elizabeth and his adoration for her every time she challenges him or speaks her mind freely, and the pain in his eyes is so plain to see when he catches himself pining for her only to remember loving her goes against everything set out for him and he shouldn't.

Macfadyen's Darcy tells everything he cannot manage to put into words just through choice glances, and as a viewer, I love it with my whole heart for how it helps us connect to such a misunderstood character from the very beginning.

We talked about this on here before so I wanted to share I wrote a drabble for this.

The missing moment in Jewel of the North (3x6) before Eliza and Moses leave to pay a visit to Solomon's.

Weekend plans: Watch Pride and Prejudice 2005 while trying to do homework and feel rested despite living amidst the chaos of the capitalistic hellscape we exist in.

If you can’t watch Pride and Prejudice 2005, putting the soundtrack on will still do wonders for the nerves.

Costume school project 2: 1830s-40s tailoring! This one was fitted to my measurements rather than a model's. Even though the learning process was quite challenging at times because it was a very quick module, it was wonderful making something I knew I'd get to wear at the end, and I learned a LOT. Suits have so much hidden structuring and precise math!

I'm looking forward to the end photoshoot where I'll also be wearing the trousers I made, and a proper shirt and cravat.

Instead of dealing with emails and the burden of being right, why not just go back to bed, tell everyone your poor nerves at being irritated by capitalism and watch P&P 2005?
