In summary, Moggach put a bit of Elinor Dashwood into Lizzie.


“I’ve emphasised it as being Lizzie’s story. Unlike in the novel, she keeps her secrets to herself and they are a great burden to her. There are things she can’t confide to her parents, her best friend Charlotte, or even her beloved sister Jane. Lizzie suffers alone. She sees her father neglecting her sisters, he ignores Lydia’s follies, which facilitates her elopement, and she views her parents’ marriage as a tragicomedy. Lizzie sees Charlotte, for the sake of security, marry the odious Mr Collins, and sees her beloved older sister sink into lovesick misery. She also wonders if her own chance of happiness is disappearing. As she keeps all this to herself, we feel for her more and more. The truest comedy, I believe, is born from pain.”
