JANE AUSTEN WRECKED MY LIFE (M)
A contemporary and offbeat romantic comedy about a young French bookseller infused with the world of Jane Austen’s novels.
Agathe, hopelessly clumsy yet charming and full of contradictions, finds herself in desperate singlehood. Her dream is to experience love akin to a Jane Austen novel and her ultimate aspiration is to become a writer.
Instead, she spends her days selling books in the legendary British bookshop, Shakespeare & Co. in Paris. Invited to the Jane Austen Writers’ Residency in England, she must confront her insecurities to finally fulfill her ambition of becoming a novelist and put an end to wasting her sentimental life.
‘A delightful and witty French rom-com as warm as a cup of tea on a nice wintry day.’
– Rendy Reviews
‘With its clever blend of literary homage and contemporary storytelling, this smart, endearing film is a treat for Austen fans as well as those who appreciate a thoughtful exploration of personal and creative aspirations.’
– Screen Zealots
‘At a time when practically the entire rom-com genre has gravitated to streaming, this bilingual theatrical offering from Sony Pictures Classics feels like the best kind of throwback.’
– Variety
