Miss Austen Regrets
CriticsCritics: 65
AudienceAudience: 6.8
As a celebrated but unmarried writer approaches 40, her niece asks for help finding a suitable husband. Guiding the young woman through courtship prompts the older aunt to reflect on love, financial security, family responsibilities, and the choices that shaped her own solitary life.
My takeYou may enjoy this thoughtful, bittersweet period drama for its strong performances, intelligent dialogue, and intimate look at family and marriage; Not for you if you want a lively romance like Emma or Pride and Prejudice.
