![]() You have no idea why but soon learn that Lady Susan is a rather poor woman and generally visits with friends and family in order to sponge off them. When the film begins, Lady Susan Vernon (Kate Beckinsale) is abruptly leaving the Manwaring estate. However, the filmmakers actually chose to make the film in Ireland.and it's a nice substitute. ![]() This film, as in other Austin films, is set in the Regency period in Britain (the very early 19th century). Again.not a complaint.more an observation which will let you decide whether the film will be right for you. ![]() And, even if you are a fan, you really have to be into the language and pay close attention for all the nuances. But the average person simply won't understand or appreciate the very droll and dry humor. ![]() Now this is not because there's anything wrong with this new movie.on the contrary, it's very well made and was produced, surprisingly enough, by Amazon Films (yes, from )! Quite surprising.especially for a lush period piece. Because of this, I feel safe in saying that a new film parody of Austin, Love & Friendship, is likely only to be seen by folks who love and appreciate her stories. But even women, who are usually the most die-hard fans of this great writer, only make up a small percentage of the population. As a guy, this makes me very unusual to say the least. ![]() I have read just about every Jane Austin novel and have seen many different versions of movies based on her books. ![]()
