Another (filmed) interpretation Written by KatharineW (4/15/2010 2:45 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, I like your idea, penned by Connie

In P&P0, Laurence Olivier (Darcy) addresses his inclusion of "extensive reading" by tapping Greer Garson's (Elizabeth's) book with his pen, implying that this last accomplishment is possessed by her. Thereafter, whenever I read the scene containing this interchange, I've wondered what could be his meaning?
