elizabear and I went to see "Becoming Jane," starring Anne Hathaway. It was a pleasant little piece of Austen fanfic, a lightweight Regency novel with a bit of Miss Austen's family stuck in to give our heroine a background. I don't see any reason to believe that any of it had a basis in fact, other than that Austen never married (so the writers added some doomed romance to her life, as explanation). Nice evening out, nonetheless, and bargain night at the cinema, so cheap too.
(Any historical costuming nuts out there who might know if the drawstring jumper dress had any basis in history at all?)
