Title: Jane Austen would denounce this film production!
Product review: PersuasionThis film production of Persuasion is so disappointing that I believe Jane Austen would denounce it if she were alive today. The screenwriter and film director clearly did not understand the story characters in this Jane Austen story. They turned Anne (the heroine) into a weepy, desperate & emotional basket-case instead of portraying her as a self-confident (in a quiet way), dignified, and full of common sense. A number of the support characters were so marginalized that it weakened and oversimplified the story. My recommendation is to go with the Amanda Root/Ciaran Hinds film production which is about the best we'll ever see.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
