The Jane Austen Book Club.
Okay, I am NOT the intended audience for this movie – not to mention I never finished the only Austen book I was asked to read at school.
But this effort – with an appropriate mix of drama, humour and tenderness – is entertaining as six people form a club, little realising how similar they are to Austen’s characters. Enjoy.
