Jun 30, 2022 · Leisure. Arts & Culture. The Best Jane Austen Film and TV Adaptations. What's not to love about a genre that includes both Clueless and Colin Firth in a wet shirt? By Liana Schaffner and Sophie...
- Pride & Prejudice (2005) An unparalleled Austen adaptation, replete with intelligent wit and human drama. There have been plenty of film adaptations of Pride and Prejudice, far more than any of Jane Austen's other novels, but Joe Wright's 2005 version is hard to beat.
- Clueless (1995) The 1810s and the 1990s somehow come together perfectly. Like Bridget Jones's Diary, Clueless uses Austen's work as the basis for something radically modern.
- Sense & Sensibility (1995) A stellar ensemble cast with a finely tuned script. Emma Thompson won an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for Sense and Sensibility, and she was also nominated for Best Actress.
- Bridget Jones's Diary (2001) Foul-mouthed fun for Austen fans and newcomers alike. Bridget Jones's Diary is a wonderful example of how to update Jane Austen's work for the 21st Century, while still maintaining the same focus on rigid societal expectations.
- 'Pride and Prejudice' 1995: TV Series starring Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle. You could throw an "Avengers"-sized budget at a remake of Austen's 1812 novel and loyalists would still turn to this six-episode BBC adaptation featuring a pre-Oscar, pre-"Bridget Jones" Firth as Mr. Darcy and Ehle as Elizabeth Bennett.
- 'Emma' 1995: 'Clueless' "Clueless," starring Alicia Silverstone and Paul Rudd, is a loose take on the 1815 comedy of manners about of a single woman playing matchmaker, then finding love of her own in the most unlikely of places.
- ‘Sense and Sensibility’ 1995: Film with Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet. The bad news: The Dashwood sisters have been well-off financially, and are now destitute.
- 'Persuasion' 1995: BBC limited series with Ciaran Hinds. Eight years before the start of the action, Anne was persuaded by friends not to marry Captain Wentworth; now that Wentworth is renting out space in her family home (Anne's family need the money) the two have a chance to revisit old hurts and get re-acquainted.
