Pride and Prejudice: A Latter Day Comedy

In this modern take on the Jane Austen classic, Elizabeth (Kam Heskin), an earnest college student at Brigham Young University, is more focused on her studies than on scoping out prospective husbands. But then two wildly different suitors smooth-talking womanizer Jack Wickham (Henry Maguire) and straitlaced businessman Darcy (Orlando Seale) attempt to win her over. Aided by her friends, Elizabeth must struggle to find love and choose Mr. Right.
