Some directors and screenwriters have centered their careers around period movies. The Merchant Ivory collaboration is probably the most famous within the period movie genre. This producer/director team, along with screenwriter Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, has given audiences period films of exceptional quality over the years, which have consistently won international acclaim. Another well known screenwriter is Andrew Davies, who has focused much of his career around adapting literary classics to film, the most notable being Pride and Prejudice(1995) and Middlemarch(1994).
