Synopsis

This dramatic adaptation of Jane Austen's first novel wryly dramatizes the disparity between the heroine's fantasy world of Gothic romance and mystery and the real world of England in the 1800s.

It also captures Austen's incomparable irony and acerbic comment in witty dialogue and narration.7 women, 6 men
