No Adaptation is Brave Enough to Show the Tolerable Scene Right

My small rant about the “tolerable” scene:

“Which do you mean?” and turning round, he looked for a moment at Elizabeth, till catching her eye, he withdrew his own and coldly said, “She is tolerable; but not handsome enough to tempt me; and I am in no humour at present to give consequence to young ladies who are slighted by other men. You had better return to your partner and enjoy her smiles, for you are wasting your time with me.”

They always have Elizabeth obscured from view. That is not correct. Darcy looks DIRECTLY at Elizabeth, he waits until SHE LOOKS BACK AT HIM and then says, in a tone he must know is audible, that she is ugly. HE KNEW SHE COULD HEAR HIM because he is 28 and he can judge how far sound carries in a room. That is not shy, socially awkward, or introverted, that’s just freaking rude.

No adaptation (in my memory) has been brave or honest enough to show what an asshole Darcy was here. Elizabeth did not hear a private comment by mistake, she heard an insult on purpose.

And he also isn’t sorry about: “when they next met, he looked at her only to criticise. But no sooner had he made it clear to himself and his friends that she had hardly a good feature in her face, than he began to find it was rendered uncommonly intelligent by the beautiful expression of her dark eyes.”

So he later went and told Bingley, Caroline, and Louisa, that Elizabeth was super ugo and had nothing to recommend her. WHAT A CHARMING MAN.

Elizabeth wasn’t wrong that he was a jerk, she was wrong to believe Wickham.

Rant over.
