It's not that there is a lot of action here, but the dramatic tension between the characters is very strong. I love how Miss Bingley puts her foot in her mouth by continuing to criticize Elizabeth to Darcy. P&P2 did this very well, with Anna Chancellor using a very condescending & catty, yet a little bit nervous, tone in her voice. And the look on her face when Darcy answers is marvelous.

In the novel, however, I love JA's descriptions even more. For one thing, the narrator tells us that Georgiana did not join in Caroline's criticism of Elizabeth: "Her brother's recommendation was enough to ensure her favour: his judgment could not err, and he had spoken in such terms of Elizabeth as to leave Georgiana without the power of finding her otherwise than lovely and amiable."
