Last night PBS Masterpiece Classic aired "Persuasion" from The Complete Jane Austen. I was smitten. I cannot recall seeing such a heart wrenching love story. There was no sex, no sensuality-- but you could slice the sexual tension with a knife. They just don't 'write 'em' like that anymore. Today's movie love stories are paltry by comparison.
If you love a story of love lost and found again you'll want to watch "Persuasion". I do believe I could watch that video again and again and again. Even my husband sat and watched the whole thing--usually the only romantic movies he tolerates are romantic comedies.
If you do watch it, I warn you, feel prepared to be wrung out emotionally by the time it is finished. I won't spoil it for you by telling you how it ends, but it kept me on tenterhooks.
Here's a clip.
