Matthew MacFayden .. right.. he was the one.. I think he is cute but cant associate cute with Mr. Darcy ... btw as a total aside, whenever I say nething Mr. I remember "Mr. Andersen" dialogue of Agent Smith from the movie Matrix.. hehehe
But agree 2hrs is a short time for giving any justice to the story..
