She was right, I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED.
If you're a Pride & Prejudice junkie like me then I'm pretty sure you will love this version as well. For those who haven't watched it here's a brief rundown:
Amanda Price is sick of the modern world. She yearns for the romance and elegance found in the books by her favorite author, Jane Austen. But she's about to get a rude awakening as one fateful evening, she is propelled into the scheming 19th century world of Pride and Prejudice while that book's Elizabeth Bennet is hurled into hers. As the book's familiar plot unfolds, Amanda triggers new romantic twists and turns within the Bennet family circle as she clumsily tries to help the sisters nab husbands and even captivates the tantalizing Mr. Darcy herself. But what about Elizabeth...and what will become of one of the world's greatest love stories?
I so loved how this movie was written. I ♥ the humor they used, the actors were fantastic. I even loved that it was almost 3 hrs long.
I would have to give Lost In Austen a big THUMBS UP!
I had to rent my movie from Netflix as our local Blockbuster had never even heard of it. I feel an Amazon purchase coming on. :)
Now go forth and RENT!
I've never heard of this either. Can't wait to check it out, I love Jane Austen!
ReplyDeleteHey! I just read this and have been DYING for a good movie to watch! I just threw it in my mix on netflix. Should be here on Friday! I'm excited to watch it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the suggestion.

Sounds good! I'll have to check it out. Awesome yard sale finds on your previous post!
ReplyDeleteomg..I just put this in my netflix list today!
ReplyDeleteI'm so bumping it up to number 1 :)
Thank you -- I may just ask for a copy for Christmas and not even worry about trying to rent it (or I might do both).
ReplyDeleteYou know a good movie selection is worth some much more than a magazine or a tv show. Especially when it is from a friend.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Not too sure where I am going to find it, but I will have to try.
I am jealous of your yard sale finds!! That mirror and radio-oh my heart be still!!!
I can't wait to see what you do with it. I am also jealous of the rick rack. Can one ever have enough? I think not!
Come over and see what I did to my crap-I mean craft room!
I've never heard of this movie! I'll have to see if my blockbuster online has it and add it!
ReplyDeleteLove the finds from the yard sale. Especially the little high chair! It is darling.
I am sure that our local store then doesn't have it as well. I will have to keep my eye out for it :0)
ReplyDeletei know....i know....isn't it fabulous???!!!
ReplyDeletemy problem is I watched it by myself and wanted to laugh with someone at all the best parts. Favorite part: when she makes mr. darcy get in the water!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i just put it in my Netflix que. Can't wait to see it. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHello thank you for sharing your wonderful thoughts on Lost in Austen, it sounds like this could be an incredible movie for me to try out. Stop by and see me some time.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Heidi
I don't remember if I've seen the first one, but I think this movie sounds like a great one!!I'll see if Blockbuster Online carries it!
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Miz Rachel,
ReplyDeleteI've been a lurker for a long time but just had to comment today! I adore Jane Austen, have 3 versions of P&P that I watch repeatedly and I'll definitely be on the look out for this one *smiles* Thanks for sharing!

ReplyDeleteAs I'm a HUGE P&P fan, Netflix BETTEr have this! :)
ReplyDeleteHmmm, must watch this.
ReplyDeleteI watched it a few months ago and just LOVED it...wished it was a few hours longer! When she made Mr. Darcy get in the water I could not stop laughing!!! I was also a big fan of Mr. Wickham - interesting little twist. And Mr. Collins - completely hideous!!!
ReplyDeleteoh, I want to see that! my mom and sisters would love that too!
ReplyDeleteI have not heard of this one. I'll have to check it out. A friend of mine just sent me the book P&P and Zombies. LOLI think that will have to be an October read!
