a wonderful movie

This movie is touching and warm in feeling. The acting is excellent and the scenes absorbing. Amanda Root is fabulous as Anne Elliot. This production is faithful to the novel. Only wish the camera had been steadier in some of the outdoor scenes.

Not only were the characters ugly, they were boring, unrealistic, and not romantic at all!! This movie is definitely going into permanent storage!

Excellent Jane austin movie
I had seen all of the movies here in the Jane Austen's set

When I am down I just put in Jane Austin Movie and will feel better by the end of the movie
very good acting and english scenery
Her stories are the best to watch
will watch it over and over

Very faithful and Romantic
Added 9/24/2009
I bought this dvd after reading several reviews for it. I believe this is one of the most faithful adaptations of a Jane Austen book, especially when the book Persuasion focuses so much on what Anne Elliot's internal feelings are. Amanda Root does so much with her facial expressions to convey what she is feeling at the moment. Ciran Hinds does a brilliant job as Captain Wentworth. This movie is definitely worth the time and money spent on it. True, it isn't flashy like many Hollywood movies and there were times when I had to turn up the volume but other than that, this is a very enjoyable film. Even my husband liked it :). I definitely put this one on par with the BBC Pride and Prejudice version that came out in 1995 with Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle.
