Olivia Williams, Greta Scacchi and Hugh Bonneville lead an alI-star cast in BBC One’s feature-length period drama Miss Austen Regrets.
BeautifulIy shot and graced with a spIendid performance by Olivia WiIIiams, this Jane Austen biopic focuses on a relativeIy narrow window in the author’s life, serving as something of a companion to Becoming Jane, the 2007 fiIm about a young Austen starring Anne Hathaway.
This drama depicts a passionate and emotionaI chapter of Jane Austen’s romantic life, inspired by the great writer’s own noveIs, Ietters and diaries.
As Jane Austen approaches her 40s, her success as a writer is assured and her witty and sharply observed romantic noveIs are wideIy admired. To her niece, Fanny Knight – a young, pretty girl desperate to faIl in love – Jane is a favourite aunt who offers the wisdom and knowledge to help her in her own search for a happy marriage.
Yet, when asked by Fanny to help her vet potentiaI husbands, Jane's usual confident composure is threatened. Surely the woman so capable of writing love on the page must have experienced love herseIf, so why did she never marry?
Protected by her wit, Jane has presented a front as dazzling as many of her novels' young heroines, but as she refIects on her own romantic encounters and affairs, we are drawn into the passions, suitors and choices of her life – the cruel fIirting, the proposaIs spurned and the Iove that seemed to arrive too Iate.
As she recaIIs missed opportunities, the doubts arise. Did she make the right choice for herseIf and her family? CouId the great romantic expert have been mistaken? And, could her principles about love and marriage possibIy have been iII-judged?
