The dialogue and satire are worthy of Monty Python.

Stillman doesn't upend the Austen formula, he burrows into it and embraces all its trappings. The snappy dialogue, meanwhile, rewards a finely tuned ear and will thrill all lovers of language.

Love & Friendship may not be traditional Austen, but it's pretty stellar Stillman.

A lesser-known novel by Jane Austen becomes an auspicious foray into costume drama by Whit Stillman. Kate Beckinsale shines.

In the masterful hands of the director and boosted by a deliciously manipulative performance by Kate Beckinsale, this feels like the most refreshing take on Austen's work ever put on screen.

A film where the American director has done an excellent job in translating the novel into dialogues and their interpreters. [Full review in Spanish]

Love & Friendship is Jane Austen with the romance drained out, exposing the pragmatism and the economic urgency underneath. That sounds grim, but the result is actually a tart, fizzy delight from Metropolitan director Whit Stillman.

A delightful comic romp that fans of the classic English author will love.
