Felt more like a film about some people role-playing Austen, than an actual Austen adaptation. Too much time spent on trying to make Anne into someone she's not (mixing modern language with history worked for Dickinson, it did not work here). Not enough time spent on the love story, which felt more like an afterthought in the end. At least it's pretty.
