Role: 

Pride And Prejudice

The landmark A&E and the BBC adaptation of Jane Austen's Pride And Prejudice has taken its place as one of the greatest television productions of all time. With a masterful script, deft direction and star-making performances from Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle, Pride And Prejudice transports viewers to Georgian England, where affairs of the heart are an exquisite game, and marriage the ultimate prize. But Elizabeth Bennet - spirited, independent, and one of five unmarried sisters - is determined to wed for love, not money or privilege.

Keeping Mum

Keeping Mum stars Rowan Atkinson as an absent-minded pastor of a rural parish who is so distracted by the pressures of the job that he fails to notice his wife's (Kristin Scott Thomas) dalliance with her brash golf instructor (Patrick Swayze), his daughter's parade of new boyfriends, and his young son's regular trouncing by the school bullies. Enter their charming new housekeeper, Grace (Maggie Smith), a sweet old lady with her own distinctive definition of cleaning house - and a very unusual way of solving problems.

The Pianist

Winner of the prestigious Golden Palm award at the 2002 Cannes film festival, The Pianist is the film that Roman Polanski was born to direct. A childhood survivor of Nazi-occupied Poland, Polanski was uniquely suited to tell the story of Wladyslaw Szpilman, a Polish Jew and concert pianist (played by Adrien Brody) who witnessed the Nazi invasion of Warsaw, miraculously eluded the Nazi death camps, and survived throughout World War II by hiding among the ruins of the Warsaw ghetto.
