"SENSE AND SENSIBILITY" (1981) Review

Jane Austen's 1811 novel, "Sense and Sensibility" has been a পছন্দ with her modern-day fans. The novel has produced at least three টেলিভিশন and two movie adaptations and a literary parody. However, this review is about the seven-part, 1981 BBC adaptation.

Directed দ্বারা Rodney Bennett and adapted দ্বারা Alexander Baron and Denis Constanduros, "SENSE AND SENSIBILITY" starred Irene Richards and Tracey Childs as the two main protagonists - sisters Elinor and Marianne Dashwood.

"PERSUASION" (1995) Review

Twenty-four years after the BBC aired its 1971 version of Jane Austen’s 1818 novel, ”Persuasion”; and twelve years before ITV aired its adaptation; Columbia Pictures released its own version on British টেলিভিশন and in movie theaters across the U.S. The movie went on to become highly acclaimed, the winner of a BAFTA TV award for Best Single Drama, and regarded as the definitive version of Austen’s novel.

Directed দ্বারা Roger Michell, ”PERSUASION” told the story of Anne Elliot, the middle daughter of an impoverished baronet in Regency England. Seven অথবা eight...

Man considers himself the creator of all, even god for that matter! He thinks of himself as the master of his destiny, the controller of all events and the ultimate doer!

All of this is completely true! But one thing goes missing in this theory. It is the fact that man, to do everything that he does, has to fall upon something for motivation and inspiration.

Different strokes for different folks may be the case here, but one stroke that stands common is movies. Accept it অথবা deny it, চলচ্চিত্র play a very important role in motivating a man. Not only do they motivate us, they also assist us in developing...

"NORTHANGER ABBEY" (1986) Review

Most movie and টেলিভিশন adaptations of Jane Austen’s novels are either highly acclaimed অথবা perhaps even liked দ্বারা অনুরাগী and critics alike. I can only think of two অথবা three adaptations that have been dismissed them. And one of them happened to be the 1986 A&E Network/BBC adaptation of Austen’s 1817 novel, "Northanger Abbey".

Adapted দ্বারা Maggie Wadey, "NORTHANGER ABBEY" follows the experiences of seventeen-year-old গথ দেশীয় novel aficionado, Catherine Morland, who is invited দ্বারা her parents’ friends, Mr. and Mrs. Allen, to accompany them on a visit to Bath,...

"MANSFIELD PARK" (1983) Review

Long before Patricia Rozema wrote and directed her 1999 adaptation of "Mansfield Park", Jane Austen’s 1814 novel, the BBC aired its own adaptation some sixteen years earlier. This one came in the form of a six-part miniseries and is regarded দ্বারা many Austen অনুরাগী as the definitive screen version of the novel.

"MANSFIELD PARK" told the story of Fanny Price, the oldest daughter of a former Royal Navy officer, who is sent দ্বারা her parents to live with her wealthy aunt and uncle-in-law, Sir Thomas and Lady Bertram, at their estate called Mansfield Park, during the early...

"PERSUASION" (1971) Review

This adaptation of Jane Austen’s 1818 novel turned out to be the first of the old Jane Austen টেলিভিশন adaptations that the BBC aired during the 1970s and 80s. Produced and directed দ্বারা Howard Baker, and adapted দ্বারা Julian Mitchell; this two-part miniseries starred Ann Firbanks and Bryan Marshall.

SOCIAL CLASS AND THE BENNET FAMILY IN "PRIDE AND PREJUDICE"

Considering how long I have been a অনুরাগী of Jane Austen’s 1813 novel, "PRIDE AND PREJUDICE" and its numerous টেলিভিশন and movie adaptations, I am surprised that I have never considered something about its heroine, Elizabeth Bennet, and her family. Ever since I have been পাঠ করা numerous প্রবন্ধ about the novel and its adaptations, I have noticed that many have labeled the Bennet family as members of the middle-class অথবা the upper middle-class in Regency England. And it finally occurred to me that many of these অনুরাগী were in error....
