This is my favorite version of Persuasion. The chemistry between Sally Hawkins and Rupert Penry-Jones is real and perfect, I so wish they worked together again.
sally hawkings is just so...captivating. She has this kind of rare beauty that you just don't normally see, and i think it fits perfectly well with anne's character
Apart from the running around Bath debacle, I truly think that is the best adaptation so far, character wise. At least in my opinion, he was the only one who came close to the book's description, character and appearance-wise.
Let's get real for a moment.... She's quite a ordinary looking woman; and for her role; fall's in deep for a stunning looking dude.... that said..... This actress played her role in a magnificient way.... Bravo !
May I commend you on your excellent choice of shots/scenes. You have really captured the sorrow, beauty and tenderness portrayed in this film, and you've done justice to its superb cinematography. This was a joy to watch - thank you.
Excellent, l'actrice est d'une grande tendresse émouvante Hé l'acteur magnifique La musique merveilleuse Mille fois mieux bienvenue à sanditon , qui e une fin moche lugubre Merci merci
I commented on another site on this under-rated, yet beautifully crafted love story that has become my hidden gem. It resonates an endearing first love compounded by circumstances…only to find each other again. I relate to this movie in so many levels. Having to give up my first love due to family obligations and expectations…your heart always aches and prays one day for an opportunity to explain your choices, ask for forgiveness and declare your love never died.
I love both this version and the one starring Ciaran Hinds.. would be hard to choose which is the better of the two, because they're both great with amazing actors!
I simply love this Persuasion. Sally Hawkins was divine as Anne and Rupert Penry-Jones was gorgeous. I could not believe the depth of how pompous Anthony Stewart Head was as Anne’s father. The location and scenery was beautiful.
Jane Austen's novels are masterpieces but they do romanticise regency era England. The reality was that people endured a lot of hardships that you would never see in the period dramas. It's easy to glamourise these time periods but to live in them would be a very different thing.
@@lepolhart3242 Actually, my first thought was... well duh. i thank you for your particular insight. yet, please also understand, if you are able. For me, in that moment of seeing these clips, i really wish i was born in different time and country. And of course each century, and country come with incredible advances and hardships. JA's novels allow for romantic escapism. Like dreams. it's odd you had such a response. good day, be well.
Especially when he shows her the house and she runs towards it. The way he looks so perfectly pleased and peacefully happy just looking at her run to the darn house. It’s like he’s saying:” Hell yeah, this is everything I’ve ever worked for”. My heart 😭
Bravo- my heart, my soul, my everything. Plain Anne and exceeddingly handsome Frederick, with a love that never knows a deathj, so sas he in his letter that I keep in front of my computer and read ,when I need a lift, which is almost daily. Beautiful music from a very sad engrossing movie, entirely a chice never to be considered, unless by you, so thank you,..LUV
This is actually "Big My Secret", though it is from the film the Piano. It was composed by Michael Nyman. The whole score is done by him and it is gorgeous. It was the reason I learned how to play.

You all assume you'll be upper-class in the past but here's a friendly reminder there were poor people who lived in awful circumstances and I'm pretty sure living in the past was good if you were filthy rich lol.
He's anxious because she has neither accepted nor declined his proposal. He wants to know her answer but is afraid it will not be the one he wishes to hear. Until she speaks he still has hope.
Yes- she’s described as past the bloom of her beauty and rather thin looking - when he sees her after 8 years he comments that’s she’s so altered he hardly recognises her but their love is forever!!!! Haha - I love it!
I’ve searched in vain for an online version. RU-vid has a couple of copies but they are of poor quality. I ordered the DVD from Amazon. You can purchase an online version of the 1995 version. IMHO, it pales in comparison to this version but it is interesting to see the differences. Some of the dialogue is recited by a different character.
Persuasion 1971 mini series is the only one who caught the essence of the characters. In this version truly Captain Wentworth was superb (no doubt about that), but Anne was neither in personality nor in appearance anything matching her description. The book sad she just looked older then her years, not plain and also that she was extremely witty and intelligent yet here you can't see none of that. She kept the same expression throughout the entire movie which is the expression of a person who can't comprehend what's been said to her.
Rubana Manzur Dude, it’s a book! It’s a beautiful, beautiful book, and I say this as one of the brown people colonized. Enjoy it, I know I cry every time I read this book or watch that ending.
I doubt the house was BOUGHT by the Captain. They were probably just renting it from Anne’s father until such time as her father was able to return to live in it, or such time as Anne’s father died and it was passed on to her Elliot cousin. Estates were passed on to the next living male heir as per the rules of primogeniture.
