Whit Stillman’s new wickedly hysterical and biting adaptation of a Jane Austen novella.
Friday 27 May – Thursday 9 June
Running time: 1h32m
Whit Stillman, who has built a career on chronicling the lives of aimless youths within privileged circles, brings his hilarious and sardonic view to the world of Jane Austen in this adaptation of her early novella Lady Susan. Lady Susan Vernon (a career-best Kate Beckinsale) is a ruthless and beautiful widow who takes residence at her in-laws’ grand countryside estate in Churchill. However, her plans to secure her financial future are thrown into disarray by new arrivals to the estate that include her daughter and a suitor (a scene-stealing Tom Bennett). A wickedly hysterical and biting adaptation that is both faithful to its period and bracingly modern.
