Miss Austen Regrets (2007) short review

Kendra April 29, 2008

2008 Miss Austen Regrets

Tells the fictionalized story of Jane Austen’s last period of her life as she deals with romantic regrets and the implications of her choice to be a writer, with Olivia Williams as the title character. I loved the story, acting and casting, and found it to be very emotionally moving. Sadly, the costumes (by the same designer who did many of the 2007/08 ITV productions) was SO boring and samey in all of these productions, this one included. While the costumes weren’t ugly or inauthentic, they were a big zzzzzzzz.
