    Poor Austen adaptation

    This is a very disappointing adaptation, seemingly designed more as a vehicle for Billy Piper than a proper adaptation of what is admittedly Austen's most complex novel. There are not only several key scenes omitted but the storyline (especially the settings) is often changed seemingly without purpose. There is little empathy with the characters, and no real examination of Fanny's inner feelings. Amongst the better performances are Hayley Atwell as Mary Crawford and Hougles Hodge as Sir Thomas.
