Hollywood Heat

Filed under: Becoming Jane — Mags @ 1:14 am

Cinematical also noticed the release of the Becoming Jane poster, and had some comments on the subject matter of the film as well.

Here’s hoping the film is somewhat restrained in using Austen’s life as a jumping off point for a bodice-ripping romance that certainly never happened. After all, we’re talking about a family-supervised, above-board acquaintanceship that happened between two society young people in the late 18th century. How much heat could you possible get out of that?

Oh, you’d be surprised what they can do in the movies these days!

Thanks to Alert Janeite ltk for the link.
