About this product

Product Information

BECOMING JANE is based on an incident in the life of the beloved writer Jane Austen, and follows the real-life romance that inspired her classic novels. Like many of her heroines, Jane (Anne Hathaway, THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA) is bright, strong-willed, and unwilling to marry merely for money, even though her family is struggling financially. Though many of her friends wish her to pair up with the nephew of a rich woman (Maggie Smith, HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX), Jane wants something more. When she meets the Irish rogue Tom Lefroy (James McAvoy, THE LAST KING OF SCOTLAND), she initially can't stand him, but their romance blooms, serving as the inspiration for PRIDE AND PREJUDICE.Director Julian Jarrold (KINKY BOOTS) is no stranger to literary fare. Though BECOMING JANE is only his second feature film, he directed several productions for British television, including GREAT EXPECTATIONS, CRIME AND PUNISHMENT, and WHITE TEETH. At times, BECOMING JANE feels exactly as it should: a long-lost Austen novel that's just been rediscovered. The themes and characters here seem familiar, as they've appeared in Austen's work many times. There's the devoted father, difficult mother, loving sister, and, of course, the charming young man with whom the protagonist initially clashes but later falls for. As Tom, McAvoy proves he deserves the attention he received for roles in THE LAST KING OF SCOTLAND and STARTER FOR TEN. He's the perfect choice for a romantic lead in an Austen film, taking his place next to Matthew McFadyen in PRIDE AND PREJUDICE and Hugh Grant in SENSE AND SENSIBILITY. As Austen, Hathaway exudes intelligence and energy, playing exactly the sort of woman who appeared in the writer's work. For those who can't wait for the next adaptation of Austen's work to arrive, BECOMING JANE is an engaging look at the writer's life and love.

    cute love story

    Although there seemed to be a number of lines and situations that were directly "lifted" from Pride and Prejudice, and that kind of bothered me, it was a good show, mostly because the male lead is pretty appealing.

    Jane Austen. Viewed once only.

    Sort of a rather slow movie. Needed more connection between some of the scenes. We got confused occasionally as to who and how (This might be just our personal limitations.). Costuming seemed to be accurate. Probably the writer and director had to be limited in action lines because this is a historical movie of an actual person. Not allowed to add non-historical flourishes of entertaining actions. Does give some insight about the severe restrictions that women lived under in those centuries. Jane is a hero by today's standards. Personally, I thought the main actress was rather cute and enjoyed watching her acting. Pretty face. Sometimes period movies of actual persons are difficult to make interesting by today's expectations.

  • Nonsense

    I usually like period movies but not this one. I watched about 1/3 and turned it off. I really looked forward to it with James Cromwell & Maggie Smith in it. It was difficult to understand what the characters were saying even with subtitles on. I know it is supposed to be historical but I found it more fairtalish. Disappointed.

  • Clean in product and movie review.

    Great price for a good movie. Product was in great shape. As far as the movie itself, it’s sad. To see someone give up/ have to give up love because of her lack of wealth. Good clean move, though; that’s what I like.
