Welcome back to the podcast Brian Hicks as he joins Stephanie in discussing the 1999 film adaptation of Jane Austen's Mansfield Park starring Frances O'Connor, Jonny Lee Miller, Alessandro Nivola, Embeth Davidtz, and Harold Pinter.
This film differs a lot from the novel, and is controversial among Jane Austen purists. Just like, Persuasion (2022) Stephanie and Brian discuss it all and this time might tolerate it more... Listen to their thoughts on another Austen adaptation as well as comparisons to the past Jane Austen films covered on the podcast.
Mansfield Park 1999 is available for purchase and free on YouTube!
