There is no way to know the truth, because her letters were burned by her sister after her death, so there are various biographical films about her, among which the styles of "Becoming Jane Austen" and "Jane Austen's Regrets" are Completely different, showing us a completely different Austin in different age groups.
"Becoming Jane Austen" chose an extremely American Anne Hathaway to play Austen, who is young, beautiful, lively and cheerful, just like Elizabeth Bennet. (Maybe the screenwriter thinks that there is an autobiography of the author in "Pride and Prejudice", and Elizabeth's prototype is Austin), but Austin's choice is very different from Elizabeth's. She rejected the proposal of Mr. Wasley, a wealthy aristocrat like Darcy, and fell in love with With the poor but handsome and enthusiastic Tom Lefroy, they eloped halfway to Austin and turned back rationally, because the consequences of the elopement are very serious, Tom's financial source will be cut off, and Austin will also face With the pressure of the world and the poor life, it is self-evident how far the two can go on the road of elopement, and whether there will be a happy ending. Therefore, the young Austin is still very rational. If she failed to elope, she kept a lonely heart and devoted herself to writing, and she became a famous writer. Although the lovers did not get married, the ending of the film is very comforting. After a few years, the two reunited at the Austen recitation, and Tom has also achieved success. When Austin heard that Tom's eldest daughter was also called "Jane", he was a little surprised and soon showed a knowing expression when he met Tom's eyes. Austin here is an accomplished and content woman who is not married, a typical Hollywood commercial as expected.
In contrast, "The Regrets of Jane Austen" is a sad and sad film, but personally, it may be closer to the real Austen. In this film, Austin is nearly 40 years old. She is an authentic old girl, but she can be considered successful. She is still articulate and humorous. She likes to make fun of poor priests. She has the charm of a mature woman, so her niece regards it as love. Expert, ask for advice on everything, but in the end, he blamed his aunt for misleading himself and lost a chance to marry. Facing the blame of his niece, Austin said helplessly and sadly: I just wrote some love stories, but I am not a love expert. Her expression was infinitely lonely and sad, and she really looked like a sad person. Later, Austin met a doctor who was younger than her, and they seemed to be ambiguous with each other. Unexpectedly, when the doctor saw the young and beautiful niece, he turned his attention. At this time, Austin's wit, wit and maturity are no match for the silhouette of a young and quiet lady playing the piano. Later, Austin, who was a little lost, smiled and said to his sister: Actually, I have no feelings for the doctor. Then quickly added: I know there is no MR Darcy in real life.
Yes, reason has repeatedly told us that there is indeed no perfect prince in life, but which woman doesn't expect it, even Austin has hoped for it. It's just that life has repeatedly told her not to, so although all her novels are like fairy tales, who doesn't know that the so-called fairy tales are written for others to read, and the author doesn't believe it at all, otherwise she wouldn't be only 41 years old Died at age.
