What would Jane do?

Women, books, Jane Austen, friendship and love - I can't think of a reason to reject a film like this.

There are six books for six people. Unfortunately, I have only read Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility in Jane's books, otherwise it may be able to penetrate deeper into the hearts of the characters.

These characters are Pieces of you.

It's almost past Allegra's age when he sees a love, the love is aggressive, the trend is booming, if you like it, you like it, and the T-shirt on her body declares - I am Lara! This age loves all kinds of extreme sports, including love. Fall in love, go down like skydiving, come up like rock climbing. Because he is young, he has no scruples and is not afraid of getting hurt. It is also because he is young and does not understand human feelings, and often hurts others and himself.

Even if you have nothing to love after 30, it is good to have Jocelyn's self-confidence and tolerance. No regret or shame for not having a lover, Big Dog is the most loyal partner. However, the fact that she is keen on mandarin duck music is a bit unbearable. Most of the people who have this hobby are very confident in their own vision, have a positive and gossip entertainment spirit, and are bold, careful, and thick-skinned. Sister Jocelyn has everything, but she is very neurotic, and she gives her Grigg who likes her own friends to her friends - it is completely the plot of "Emma". The two want to talk about it, but the sullen part of the road is very old-fashioned but looking forward to it. They are all veterans of the third year, and there are children who are awkward.

Prudie and Dean, a newlywed couple, their enthusiasm was quickly flattened by their struggling life, and Prudie's always critical cold face made people not fall in love with her. It wasn't until her bad mother appeared that she had some sympathy for her - her picky, cleanliness, and even indifference were nothing more than the result of fighting with her mother. When my mother died, she had no opponent - "Mother's influence on us is like a ticking time bomb that will explode in our hearts at any time". When she looked across the road at the 17-year-old student waiting for her to open her room, the light suddenly changed to: What would Jane do? ——Fortunately, the books we have read can also be bombs.

I just don't understand Daniel and Sylvia. 25 years of marriage came to an end because of other women. The husband felt guilty and returned to clean the lawn. At the meeting in the supermarket, the husband hid his new love in the car and said to his wife, "This supermarket is yours, we will never show up here again." But the wife tried desperately to see what the new love looked like - stupid It's stupid, it's not very emotional at this point? Even if they grow old together, they may not always be of one mind. The book of marriage is too profound. Others can't understand it. They don't know the depth of the water. Jump down and don't think about it. Immediately after the divorce, Sylvia was reborn as a gorgeous mature woman - does it imply that marriage is a woman's grave? ——The demeanor of a mature woman makes her ex-husband’s heart tickle. In addition, she has had so many experiences and has a daughter who is very good at finding time to fall and get hurt. Now there is another market comedy that breaks the mirror and reunites - why bother? Over the past 25 years, you thought you had some confidence in this person, and if you gave it all your heart, the effort for a meal might be completely overturned. You can’t escape the variables when you are around. What else can you do except pray and work hard?

If I had experienced all the types of marriages written in Jane's book at the age of 50, like Bernadette, it would be very NEWBEE.

Grigg, the only male in the reading club, was attracted by Sister Jocelyn to read Jane's book, because "I thought that after reading the book you love, you will also read the book I love" - ​​the initial stage of goodwill. Some people fall in love first, and then they begin to have the desire to understand each other. Some people get to know each other unconsciously and gradually develop feelings for each other. Either way, when people try to understand each other and understand themselves at the same time, it is the beginning of putting down the drawbridge and feeling relieved.

Happy ending.

The Jane Austen Book Club quotes

  • Sylvia Avila: Look, I adore Jocelyn, but . . . ah ha, if, "Loving is letting go," then whoever wants Jocelyn is going to have to pry her fingers loose, one by one.

  • Editor: Dear Ms. Corrine Mahern, we regret that we must decline to publish the three short stories you sent to us. 'Benny's Basketball' is strong narratively, but the depiction of your penis-waving retarded boy felt a little unkind. And isn't the title 'Separating Eggs For Flan' a bit obvious as a metaphor for your parents' divorce? Yet we confess that 'Skydiver' puzzled us most. Why would a beautiful, self-centered young lesbian jump out of a plane?
