What does mr bennet think of elizabeth's refusal of mr Collins proposal?

Surprisingly, Mr. Bennet approves of Elizabeth's refusal. Although the rest of Elizabeth's family believes in the traditional norms of the time, Mr. Bennet thinks more outside the box. He primarily concerns himself with Elizabeth's happiness and knows that her free spirited attitude would not be a match for Mr. Collins. Luckily Mr. Bennet does not jump to the same conclusion that Mrs. Bennet does. Elizabeth's mom feels that Elizabeth will be a lonely, single woman forever if she refuses Mr. Collins. The demand for a woman to marry early, because of the necessity of a husband for property and money, are demonstrated by Mr. Collins' quick proposal and his expectation that Elizabeth will say yes. However, Mr. Bennet's dislike of Mr. Collins and his approval of Elizabeth's actions show that not everyone believed in marrying the first person who presents an offer.


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.
