Rolling Stone reviews BRIDE AND PREJUDICE

January 29, 2005

As the first green shoot of daffodil emerging through the snow heralds the arrival of spring, the arrival of BRIDE AND PREJUDICE on American shores is announced by the first of the big-name reviews, as Peter Travers reviews the film for Rolling Stone magazine. Mr. Travers seems lukewarm toward the film, but is clearly beguiled by Aishwarya Rai.

But first, take a look at the photo above of Aishwarya Rai, who stars as Lalita, the eldest daughter. Rai, a former Miss World and a goddess in her native India, will soon be adding Americans to her worshipful flock. No wonder 60 Minutes just did a major profile of her. Rai is a world-class hottie with talent to match, as she proves in her first English-speaking role.

All the boys fall in love with Lizzy/Lalita, don’t they?

Purists who think Austen will be spinning in her grave will be wrong. She’ll be dancing.

Purists? Who, us? ;)

(The Editrix received news yesterday that she may be attending a special screening the first night of the film’s release on Feb. 11. w00t!)
