To imply (or say outright, as in the trailer) that a flirtation was "the inspiration" for Jane's greatest love stories is not only inaccurate, it's insulting.

I loved the film, becoming jane.
It is my favourite film ever! The way the film was done, in my opinion it was perfect. Anne Hathaway was excellent as Jane Austen, and James McAvoy's acting was great. My favourite scene was when they were dancing together at Lady Gresham's ball. It was enchanting to see the chemistry between the two characters as they danced together. |

I've watched it twice on dvd and it still made me cry more the second time. It was so heart wrenching but loved James & Anne Hathaway! They were great together.

James McAvoy did a good job, and I don't think it was a simple flirtation. It had a lot more romance and chemistry than some of the most agreeable marriages at that time. Anne Hathaway did a good job, I had not really expected her to be that good, because she just didn't strike me as the 1700s-1800s type character. But she proved me wrong. I hated how they didn't end up together because she had a conscious. >.< But basically, I just loved the character of Tom Lefroy.

Daily Horoscope for December 11
Aquarius
You're in a tricky position because someone who is supposed to know what they're talking about seems to be spouting complete nonsense instead. If this is an older friend or relative then you can simply smile politely and wait for them to rejoin the rest of us on Planet Earth. But if it's a boss or bureaucrat who's talking rubbish or giving you some puzzling orders, you'll be in a quandary about what to do.
