Love & Friendship

This content has been archived. It may no longer be relevant

In this stylish satire adapted from a Jane Austen novella, a scheming widow with failing finances moves to her in-law’s estate where she sets about matchmaking for her daughter and herself. Status and prospects are unscrupulously mined as desirable suitors are lured and toyed with by the ruthless Lady Susan.

Love, money and convenience engage in a merry dance of witty dialogue, lovely costumes and great character acting… wickedly funny!

“Love & Friendship is a reminder that Austen was not only a brilliant architect of screen-friendly plots but also a very funny writer.”
— A.O. Scott, New York Times
