I read the script

My cousin worked on the film and, knowing I'm such an Austen-fan, he sent me his script when they finished filming. The script is okay. Its kind of like Bridget Jones Diary but sticks closer to the novel and is set in Utah. The proper character names are used, apart from Wickham, who is now called Jack for no reason in particular. The Bennet sisters are now housemates. Jane is Puerto Rican and Elizabeth's best friend, so no Charlotte. No Mr and Mrs Bennet either. Darcy is still English. They follow the plot of the novel but it feels very squeezed in places. The major changes are a finale in Las Vegas where all the characters try to stop Lydia marrying Wickham and Collins marries Mary instead of Charlotte. Overall it felt a lot like Clueless, right down to the menstruation jokes. Apparently, it is really low budget. I think the budget was $350,000. Seems like a lot to me but my cousin tells me most commericals cost more, so I've no idea what it'll be like. He also said nearly all the crew are still students and most didn't get paid to work on it. I'm still excited to see it.
