Secret Test of Character | |
| Pride and Prejudice (1940) / int_3f7a958b | comment |
Secret Test of Character: When Lady Catherine de Bourgh shows up at Longbourn to talk with and intimidate Elizabeth, she warns Elizabeth that she is the trustee of Mr. Darcy's estate, and if he marries Elizabeth he'll be left penniless. Elizabeth says poverty would be nothing new for her. In this version, Lady Catherine is just testing Elizabeth to make sure she's not marrying Darcy for his money - and that she's got the gumption to stand up to him when he needs it. | |

Setting Update | |
| Pride and Prejudice (1940) / int_af4d6174 | comment |
Setting Update: The time period is moved forward to the 1860s in order to have more flamboyant costumes (that period was all the rage in Hollywood at the time). The adaptation of Wuthering Heights also starring Laurence Olivier did likewise. | |

Hollywood Costuming | |
| Pride and Prejudice (1940) / int_e46f71c3 | comment |
Hollywood Costuming: The Gorgeous Period Dress in this adaptation is from the wrong period; the Bennet girls are dressed in 1860s hoop skirts and are all wearing heavy cosmetic makeup in the 1940s style, complete with false eyelashes and dark shiny red lipstick. It may have been necessary, given that Elizabeth and Darcy were played in that adaptation by actors well into their thirties. It should also be noted that in this instance, the costumes were recycled from Gone with the Wind — the studio was on the verge of bankruptcy and had to take as many shortcuts as they could. Likewise, heavier makeup was also common practice for black and white filming since it shows up better in the lack of color. | |

Adaptational Context Change | |
| Pride and Prejudice (1940) / int_f33ff01c | comment |
Adaptational Context Change: Lady Catherine's speech to Lizzie towards the end of the novel is a genuine "Reason You Suck" Speech and Kick the Dog moment for the haughty old woman. In the film, with Lady Catherine being softer, the speech is now a hoax that tests the sincerity of her love. | |
