To kick off a month of love & romance films, we welcome special guests Kate Duffy and Danny Zeliger to discuss Joe Wright's 2005 adaptation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, starring Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen. We talk about the origins of modern day rom-coms, the difficulty of overcoming a bad first impression, the cardinal social sin of awkwardness, romanticizing the past, Tom Hollander's serial killer vibes as Mr. Collins, and which characters we identify with most. Take a turn about the room and give us a listen!
