Jane Austen was born
In the film, by different ways of the five daughters' treatments toward marriage, Austin tries to express the different attitudes of the girls who grow up in middle class family toward marriage and love, as well as the author’s attitudes toward marriage: It is wrong to marry for the purpose of property, money and social status, and it is also foolish to dismiss these factors.
Jane Bennet
Mr. Bennet is the father of Elizabeth Bennet and head of the Bennet family. An English gentleman with an estate in Hertfordshire, he is married to Mrs. Bennet and has five daughters. Unfortunately, his property is entailed to a male descendant, meaning it can only be inherited by his closest male heir, Mr. Collins. Mr. Bennet is a very amiable and somewhat eccentric man, but he has a bitingly sarcastic humour and can only derive amusement from his "nervous" wife and three "silly" daughters--Mary, Kitty and Lydia.
