The New York Times TV reporter is clearly hip.
9 P.M. (IFC) PERSUASION (1995). Amanda Root stars in Jane Austen’s restrained, poignant and satisfying story of a seemingly resigned Regency-era old maid (she’s 27) who is presented with a second chance. Ciaran Hinds is the sea captain she almost married when she was 19. Sophie Thompson is priceless as the heroine’s sister, a comically self-involved character that Bridget Jones would recognize on sight as the original “smug married.”
“I am so ill I can hardly speak.”
IFC’s Web site provides additional showtimes: Friday, October 7, 12:15 PM; Friday, October 7, 6:00 PM; and Wednesday, October 19 11:00 PM.
