Can one equate Darcy with pride and Elizabeth with prejudice?
I think only to a degree. In the end, both characters share in this theme but in different ways. Darcy is proud because of his position in society, and that leads him to scorn anyone outside of his social class at the start. Critic A. Walton Litz commented: "in Pride and Prejudice one cannot equate Darcy with Pride, or Elizabeth with Prejudice; Darcy's pride of place is founded on social prejudice, while Elizabeth's initial prejudice against him is rooted in pride of her own quick perceptions." So Darcy is proud of his position because of social prejudice. Elizabeth at first had prejudice against him because she was proud of her own judgement.

What should be read first Sense and Sensibility or Pride and Prejudice?
This is a question that strikes me as being somewhat like, "Which should I try first, the world's best chocolate cake or the world's best apple pie?" It really depends on what sort of thing you like.
That having been said, I would suggest Pride and Prejudice, but I have to admit it is only because I so easily fell in love with Lizzy. Marianne Dashwood is too romantic for me, and Elinor is to sensible. Lizzy, however, is a delight through and through. But that is just me, and Sense and Sensibility is also a wonderful book.
Perhaps you should develop your own opinion.
What is the misunderstanding between Jane Bennet and Mr Bingley?
The misunderstanding between Jane and Mr. Bingley is such a heartbreaking one! Jane Bennett, who is the definition of modesty and humbleness, is always too shy to show what she really feels inside, especially given that her social situation, which, while decent, isn't up to Mr. Bingley's par. Mr. Bingley, on the other hand, radiates what he feels and is such a nice person to everyone. But this is where the doubt is seeded.
Jane, probably a little intimidated by Mr. Bingley's wealth, is always demure and shy around him, although obviously friendly towards him. She is never forward about her emotions and doesn't spend all of her time around Mr. Bingley, but tells Elizabeth that she really does like him. Even though we, the reader, know that Jane adores Bingley, he hasn't gotten any hint from her! He only thinks she thinks he is a nice friend, but doesn't want anything romantically from him.
This is why it was so easy for Mr. Darcy to plant the seed of doubt in Mr. Bingley's head, along with his sister, Miss Binlgey, of course, who didn't want to be connected to the Bennetts at all. Mr. Darcy says that Jane probably doesn't like him, and that it would be better to get away from them all and go back to the city. Charles Bingley eventually agrees.
Jane takes the move very badly. She thinks of his status, and wealth, and agrees (with Miss Bingley's provocation), that Mr. Bingley would be much better suited - more equal - if he were to marry Georgiana Darcy, Mr. Darcy's sister. So Jane suffers in silence because she doesn't want to start any trouble by acting on her emotions, and Mr. Bingley waits in London because he thinks Jane isn't suffering!
Even when Jane comes to London to visit Mr. Bingley, Miss Bingley leads her astray again by saying everything is going according to plan with Miss Darcy - oh, how wonderful Miss Darcy is, so very refined! The one time Jane was actually going to do something, Miss Bingley thwarts her again! Miss Bingley said she would tell Mr. Bingley of her visit, but Mr. Bingley never comes to see her. Jane takes that as confirmation of Miss Bingley's account, and returns to London, not knowing that Mr. Bingley didn't even know Jane was there.
After Elizabeth makes Mr. Darcy see the errors of his ways, though, he makes everything clear to Mr. Bingley, who goes back to Jane at once. Everything is eventually resolved, the misunderstanding is long gone, and Jane and Mr. Bingley get married. Happily ever after!

How do charlotte and elizabeth differ on views of marriage?
Charlotte knows that she lacks both the fortune, the grace, the beauty, the youth or the social standing to tempt a truly nice person. Therefore, she is determined to get a "nice catch", although she is fully aware that Mr. Colin is an idiot, a pompous jerk and a bore. Taking all these into account, she believes it is better to know as little a possible about one's future husband, as the wife will have a lifetime to discover any additional fault of character! She is determined to catch him as quickly as possible in order to secure a comfortable future and after they get married, she encourage his hobbies in order to get him out of sight as often as possible.
Elisabeth believes in soul mates. She knows from her parents' example that a marriage based on physical attraction cannot be a happy one if it is not accompanied by mutual interests and respect. Her sad experience (much too common in those day) with Wickam makes her realize what it means to marry someone only for a a large sum of money. Therefore, she wants to marry only a man she can respect and love all her life, that's why she refuses several proposals of marriage.

When does the song another dance take place in the movie Pride and Prejudice?
"Another Dance" is on the soundtrack CD, but is not actually in the movie. My guess is that it was either in a scene that was cut out later or was recorded for the soundtrack but ended up not being used in the film.
The song is an arrangement (not original composition), so that also leads me to believe that it is an old English country dance tune. I've been working on identifying it. I wish the composer had credited the original tune title somewhere. :)
