Character Evaluation
In Whit Stillman's movies, many characters often talk about Jane Austen, and they even argue about it
. In the movie "Love and Friendship", the editor and director Whit Stillman meticulously presented Jane Austen's modern image, faithfully expressing everything that the original "Mrs. Susan" wanted to reveal, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is better than Jane. ·The film and television works adapted from most of Austin's novels in recent decades are closer to the author's spirit. The tone of the film is solemn, which is not set off by the luxurious beige exhibition hall. On the contrary, the dark tones of the room in the film bathe in thick shadows .
