Based around actual events during a time where Jane was enamored with a young gentleman named Tom Lefroy an Irishman who was studying to be a lawyer at the time...this may have been the man who was the prototype for a character or two in Jane Austen's world.
What I liked about the movie is the way it depicts Jane as a human being with thoughts, feelings and ideas.
Anne did a tremendous job in her portrayal of a British woman who has been gone for over two hundred years.
This is a romance that was doomed to failure, but in it driven home the very principle that Jane always wrote from experience.
What I loved was that the movie didn't base itself on the love affair with Tom Lefroy only, but showed Jane as a writer and a woman who was spunky, lively and a devoted sister to her dear Cass.
I recommend this movie to anyone who would enjoy a few minutes in Jane's world!
~Enjoy!
