Mr. Bennet had found his wife attractive when they were younger. She was good looking, lively, and silly in an endearing way. He came to realize, too late, that he would have been happier with an equal partner.

What Jane Austen film is this from 'If you don't marry him your mother will never see you again but if you do marry him then I will never see you again'?

Pride and Prejudice That was when one of Elizabeth Bennett's suitors, Mr. Collins asks Elizabeth to marry him. Elizabeth refuses, and Elizabeth's mother Mrs. Bennett appeals to Mr. Bennett to talk to Elizabeth and convince her to accept Mr. Collins' proposal. She tells Mr. Bennett to tell Elizabeth that she would never see her again if she didn't marry Mr. Collins. However, Mr. Bennett sides with Elizabeth - clearly evident from this dialogue. The exact dialogue is - " An unhappy alternative is now before you, Elizabeth. You must now become a stranger to one of your parents. Your mother will never see you again if you do not marry Mr. Collins, and I will never see you again if you do." There are a number of film versions of Pride and Prejudice, and this particular line is probably in all of them because it is one of the best known lines from the novel itself.
