bad shit

Saw the movie as a former veteran Jane Austen fan.

I'm very disappointed that a clichéd and boring story has been linked to six Jane Austen books in a far-fetched and overly hypocritical way.

The man who participated in the book club was quite interesting. In my acquaintance, all who like Jane Austen are women. When a man sees Jane for the first time, all he can get is the relationship between Edmund and Fanny's brother-sister-like love and Princess Leia's and Luke Skywalker's brother-sister infidelity in Interstellar. I was completely amused when I saw this girl.

Also the movie didn't impress me too much. The writers always try to pull out the concepts of morality, self-control and women's responsibility that are always advocated in Jane Austen's novels from these ordinary stories of ordinary people, which I find very boring.

Movies that can be deleted after watching it once. Jane Austen's books can still be read more.

The Jane Austen Book Club quotes

  • Grigg Harris: What about me? Am I your friend? Or am I just some... some widget to help you make Sylvia feel better about herself? Why did you invite me to be part of your book club? No, what went through your mind the first time you saw me? "There's a man who is *dying* to read every book Jane Austen ever wrote." Is that what you thought?

    Jocelyn: No.

    Grigg Harris: But I thought, "What a beautiful woman. I hope she looks over at me." I thought if I read your favorite books that you would read mine. But no... no, no. You just want to be obeyed. That's why you have dogs.

  • Prudie Drummond: I'm in love with one of my students. I mean, nothing's happened, much. It could if I let it... I fantasize about him constantly.

    Bernadette: Sweetie, your mother died. This is grief.

    Prudie Drummond: He looks at me like he's the spoon, and I'm this dish of ice cream.
