 Tagline: Their love story was her greatest inspiration.
Becoming Jane is an imaginative romantic comedy in the spirit of Jane Austen that places young Jane herself at the center of a witty, enchanting romance not unlike those that would later captivate millions in her celebrated works of literature.
The film spins the few known facts surrounding Austen’s real-life flirtation with the Irish lawyer, Tom Lefroy, into a tale about the kind of personal passion and social complications that could have inspired Jane to become the ingenious and utterly timeless observer of human relationships and romance that she soon did. Indeed, the story playfully references the characters and themes that wend their way through her six novels.
The year is 1795 and young Jane Austen (Anne Hathaway) is a feisty 20 year-old and emerging writer who already sees a world beyond class and commerce, beyond pride and prejudice, and dreams of doing what was then nearly unthinkable – marrying for love marrying for love, without any regard for financial well-being at all; in other words, their romance was based not on sense, but on sensibility or feeling, as the word meant in her day and in her book title, Sense and Sensibility.
