What We're Watching: Alice

The Jane Austen Book Club - starring Kathy Baker, Maria Bello, Emily Blunt, Amy Brenneman, Jimmy Smits and Hugh Dancy.


Six Californians, five women, one man (Dancy), start a club to discuss the works of Jane Austen, only to find their relationships begin to resemble 21st century versions of her novels. There's plenty of pride, prejudice, sense and sensibility in this critically acclaimed film which is sure to engage even reluctant Austen readers. As Kathy Baker's Bernadette exclaims , "Jane Austen is the perfect antidote to life!" Based on the book of the same name by Karen Joy Fowler.
