A Thread for Whit Stillman's "Love & Friendship"

This adaptation of minor Austen is a good idea as concept: less well known than the major novels, less expectations. And it works! Kate Beckinsale in her best role to date as the schemer after a perfect moneyed marriage.

In some ways his most formally perfect work. At 91 minutes it doesn't overstay its welcome. Crisp editing too.
