Description

Academy Award®-nominee Felicity Jones (The Theory of Everything, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) stars as romance addict Catherine Morland in Jane Austen's gentle parody of gothic fiction. Upon her first visit to Bath, Catherine finds herself immersed in a world of elaborate balls and handsome men, and forms a close friendship with the vivacious Isabella Thorpe (Academy Award® nominee Carey Mulligan, An Education). When invited to a medieval country house that appeals to her most lurid fantasies, Catherine forms a bond with the younger son on the estate, Henry Tilney (JJ Feild, Austenland), but their budding romance is mysteriously cut short.

  • Awful

    The novel is completely wonderful. This adaptation is awful. The costumes are awful. The hairstyles are awful. The cinematography is awful. The sets are awful. The screenplay is awful. The acting is awful. The casting is awful. I wish I had not bought this movie, what a waste.
  • Love this movie!

    I have been waiting for this movie to come out on iTunes for a long time! I love the cast. This is one that matches the book completely. Any Jane Austen fan would love this.
  • A Fantastic Adaptation

    This is one of my favorite adaptations ever, Austen or otherwise. It's sweet, funny and perfectly cast -- Felicity Jones and Carey Mulligan before they were famous! -- and this version gives Catherine a hilarious fantasy life that is completely in line with the character's obsession with gothic novels. The ending is a bit too abrupt (though very happy) but the rest of this fantastic production makes up for it. I'm so glad this is finally available as a digital download!
