Stolz und Vorurteil (1940)
England im 19. Jahrhundert: Elizabeth "Lizzy" Bennet ist die zweite von fünf Schwestern. Als ihr Vater stirbt, droht das Familiengut Longbourn an den Cousin Mr. Collins zu fallen, denn einen männlichen Erben gibt es nicht in der Familie. Deshalb plant die Mutter, ihre fünf Töchter so schnell wie möglich zu verheiraten. Als der wohlhabende Charles Bingley mit seiner Schwester und seinem besten Freund Mr. Darcy auf das naheliegende Anwesen Netherfield einzieht, ist die Aufregung groß, denn beide Männer sind noch unverheiratet. Bingley ist sofort von Lizzys älterer Schwester Jane verzückt. Lizzy bleibt der arrogante und stolze Darcy, den sie überhaupt nicht leiden kann. Als Bingley Janes Herz bricht und die jüngere Schwester Lydia mit einem Feind von Darcy durchbrennt, droht dies den Ruf der Familie zu ruinieren.
