Becoming Jane

Rating: B+

This movie tells the story of Jane Austen, her loves, her family and how she became one of the most celebrated writers ever.

I liked this movie a lot.  I thought that Anne Hathaway did a good job as Jane.  The supporting cast was wonderful.  It is a little slow but the quick and smart dialog of Jane Austen makes up for it.  Definitely a renter unless, like me, you must own every movie that refers to Austen.   James McAvoy is awesome - now I need to go see Atonement
