Ahhh, to be a young lass in 19th century England again, right ladies?

This week, the LFOC gang step back in time to the whimsical land of Jane Austen as we explore the best (maybe? Don't come after us, BBC stans) depiction of her magnum opus, Pride and Prejudice. 

This truly is the quintessential film that women show their boyfriends/husbands, promising them that it will be good if they just give it a chance, and two hours and seven minutes later are proven correct.

But you know us, we're here to ask the real questions: Is Lydia so unlikeable because she has a Jezebel spirit? Is Rupert Friend a good friend in real life? And how can we possibly trace the notes of the Gospel in a movie with no explosions???

Thanks for listening!
