Jane Austen
I watched Persuasion (2022) and can't BELIEVE how terrible it was. Like I heard it was bad. But I never thought I would get so much cringe from a Jane Austen movie.....
As if writers actually think gen Z won't understand Jane Austen's writing.
The reason we read Jane Austen is to read lines like
"You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope. Tell me not that I am too late, that such precious feelings are gone for ever. I offer myself to you again with a heart even more your own than when you almost broke it, eight years and a half ago. Dare not say that man forgets sooner than woman, that his love has an earlier death. I have loved none but you"
Have I memorised that....YES!!!
Persuasion (2022) tried to be the next Emma (2020) but became Bridgerton.
Favourite Jane Austen novels (a.k.a all books)
1. Emma
2. Pride and Prejudice
3. Northanger Abbey
4. Persuasion
5. Mansfield Park
6. Sense and Sensibility
7. Lady Susan
"It is not every one," said Elinor, "who has your passion for dead leaves."
I feel that my entire experience with reading Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility can be summed up in the sarcasm of that sentence.
