Grant and Nikki Amka-Bird, the director is Tony Award-nominated theatre director Kelly Clarknell, her first feature-length feature film.
Ronald Bath ("Rain Man," "The Wedding of My Best Friend") and Alice Victoria Winslow write the screenplay for Persuasion, which tells the story of Anne Elliot, a woman with trendy emotions and disobedience, living with her snobbish, bankrupt family. When the personable, sassy Frederick Wentworth, whom Anne once sent off, reappears, she must make a choice: leave the past behind her, or have a second chance to listen to her heart.
Stills from Persuasion
Jane Austen (December 16, 1775 – July 18, 1817) was an unavoidable heavyweight in the history of European and American literature. Austen's novels appeared in the early 19th century, swept away the popular trend of pseudo-romanticism, inherited and developed the excellent Realist tradition of the 18th century in Britain, and prepared for the climax of the 19th century realist novel.
Although the breadth and depth of his works are limited, they played a good role in changing the vulgar customs in the creation of novels at that time, and had a significance in the history of the development of the British novel, and were praised as writers whose status was "on an equal footing with Shakespeare". Jane Austen had no shortage of readers, and even George IV, who was then regent, was obsessed with her work.
The global remake of Austen's novel began in 1995 with the BBC's 6-episode television series Pride and Prejudice in 1995, with its high level of screenwriting, precise character selection and detailed historical details, which suddenly caused a sensation in the UK and triggered a series of adaptations. Within a year or two, there have been Ang Lee's film "Sense and Sensibility", two versions of "Emma", the movie "Persuasion" and so on.
There's also Love and Friendship, a feature film directed by Whit Stillman based on Jane Austen's novel starring Kate Beckinsale, Chloe Severney, and James Fret, released in 2016. Set during the British Regency period when Jane Austen lived, it tells the absurd story of the beautiful and shrewd Mrs. Susan Vernon, who strives to find a rich and prosperous man for her daughter.
Emma
Austen's novel Temple of Northonjue was also made into a film, the most famous of which was the version directed by Giles Foster. Her Mansfield Manor was the first novel to be remade, and in 1983 the BBC made it into a love miniseries.
Jane Austen's novels have been remade one after another, and her own experience has become a "rich mine", which has been adapted into film and television several times in a row.
For example, "Jane Austen's Regrets" exclusively discloses Jane Austen's letters, diaries and her novels in the form of a drama film, recreating the romantic life of the female literary hero and entering her little-known inner world.
