Gurinder Chadha's Bride and Prejudice



Gurinder Chadha's Bride and Prejudice

Introduction

The movie Bride and Prejudice, directed by Gurinder Chadha and the latter has adapted a novel by Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice. In French, we read Pride and Prejudice. But the director of Indian origin has permitted a pun with flange means marriage. This film has had success across the Channel especially as Gurinder Chadha is no longer unknown to the general public since the release of his film Bend It Like Beckham (Chadha, 2004,, 1).

Bride and Prejudice takes us through the maze of games of Love and Chance, with India as a backdrop. But this India painted here is whimsical and colourful; poverty is "excluded" from the film. Indeed, the director wants us describe an unreal but with all the habits and stereotypes in contemporary society. Nevermind the story of this family with 4 girls whose mothers dream to see quickly established with good matches and the adventures that will eventually lovers meet and marry. Originality here is that our so desirable Darcy is an American, full of himself and his culture as in "Indian Family", we are talking about the modern life in India, young people move their little backwater of southern India in London and LA and do, while preserving their cultural values, partly the "global village". The girls put Mallot bath, even filmed portraits and ultimate refinement of the Indian film industry, sing and dance all the time. This is causing, it's hilarious at times. That's excellent, unpretentious, everyone takes for his rank. And we are entitled to bonus gray eyes of the former Miss Aishwarya Rai.

A month into the shoot the money from the Indian stars / producers dried up and the picture was never completed. It remains the only bad experience he ever had a movie. Gurinder Chadha wanted to go back there - in the world of glamorous stars, endless costume changes, and extravagant musical numbers with hundreds of dancers and erotically charged wells? Of course Gurinder Chadha did. A week later he had an epiphany and knew exactly what Gurinder Chadha wanted to do. Growing up, "Pride & Prejudice" was his favorite book. Gurinder Chadha decided that, as David Beckham, Jane Austen was another delicious English icon ripe for subversion. Gurinder Chadha would be her Elizabeth Bennet - the ultimate, feisty independent heroine of Brit Lit - and she wants to transform into Lalita Bakshi, a proud fireworks with brains and balls, which is expected more than an Indian girl. While Austen 18th Century explores class differences, Gurinder Chadha wanted at the first impressions we make each other culturally in today's increasingly small world to ...
