Review of Lost in Austen

2/10
Oh no

Warning: Spoilers
This is one of the stupidest things I've ever seen. Apart from one or two funny moments, it was irritating to sit through because of Amanda's idiotic, bull-in-a-china-shop behavior. After contending that she knew the book practically by heart, loved and understood the time and its manners. Not! Complaining to the characters that they had the wrong attitudes or had buggered things up, when she was the spanner in the works.

But I had to laugh when she asked Mr. D'Arcy to immerse himself in the pool a la Colin Firth. It wasn't enough to redeem this nonsense, however.

An interesting premise very poorly executed.
