When was bride and prejudice filmed

The Bennets become the Bakshis, who live in small town India and Darcy is an American, the wealthy son of a hotelier. The film will feature song and dance sequences in the Bollywood style, with lyrics by the Akhtar family and music by Anu Malik, India's most prominent composer.

The choreographer is the Saroj Khan. Miramax will distribute in North and South America and Australia. Screen International is the essential resource for the international film industry.

The pretty stars, the toe-tapping music, the dance sequences, the scenery of India, England and the US. These things all added up to pretty tasty eye-candy.

I also liked the international flavor and themes of the film. As was pointed out in the DVD commentary, it was a British film with a decidedly non-Eurocentric point of view. It was this while being a populist film at the same time. Of course, there are white folk too. The movie handles conflict between "Western arrogance" and native defensiveness without making one side more righteous than the other.

And, of course, in the end, love conquers all. Well, love and wealth conquers all Which leads me to what I didn't like about the film. I have to admit, one reason I liked the film was because I loved looking at the beautiful, young actresses. So, maybe it is a tad hypocritical of me that the biggest turn-off was that the main appeal of the male protagonists to the female characters was their wealth and power.

I thoroughly enjoyed the film and recommend it highly. Details Edit. Release date March 11, United States. United Kingdom United States India. English Hindi Punjabi Spanish. Bride and Prejudice: The Bollywood Musical. Amritsar, Punjab, India.
