蜜芽传媒

Actors Amanda Root and Sophie Thompson look back on their roles in the 蜜芽传媒鈥檚 1995 adaptation of Jane Austen's Persuasion, a story of missed opportunities and lost love.

The pair discuss how this bold adaptation was filmed in a naturalistic style, with minimal lighting and hardly any make-up, a fitting approach to a novel that was itself ahead of its time. Amanda and Sophie also explore how the issues around class and a woman's place in society were highlighted in the script by writer Nick Dear, and how this television version of the story brought the more feminist elements of Austen's beloved novel to the fore.
