PRIDE AND PREJUDICE: HAVING A BALL

Trailer

This BBC documentary celebrating the 200th anniversary of "Pride and Prejudice" reveals the hidden world behind one of the greatest love stories of all time by restaging an early 19th Century Regency ball at Chawton House, the grand estate of Jane Austen's brother in an idyllic corner of the English countryside. Amanda Vickery and Alastair Sooke lead a team of world-class experts as they reconstruct the ball in loving detail, from music and dancing to food and fashion. We unpack the surprising truth about every aspect of Regency life, on location at the house where Jane Austen's brother used to live and where she herself spent many happy hours. The film's climax is a stunning, authentic ball inspired by Austen's Netherfield dance, a turning point in the romance between Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy. (TV Movie, 2013)
