I am the big fan of 1995 BBC version of Persuasion. However I do admit that the music & the letter in 2007 ITV version is fabulous. it incisively shows the passion of pain, the forlorn hope and eternal love in the origin work.
anyone know the music that starts playing when she starts reading the letter? was it written specifically for the movie or does it actually exist somewhere?
This is got to be one of the few moments in literature that makes my knees weak. This and Darcy's confession. Jane Austen was really a genius.

My favorite Jane Austen book, and this movie made me love it so much more. Rupert Penry Jones was perfect for Capt. W. :)

No way, 1995 version captured this moment so much better. Ciaran Hinds voice made this scene amazing.
