  • Mr. Lefroy, would you marry me?

  • Do you mean the real Mr. Lefroy or James?

    For me the real Mr. Lefroy is less attractive than the character played by James McAvoy.

    If you are interested to see a picture of the real Mr. Lefroy have a look at the Wikipedia website.

  • I can say that Tom Lefroy´s daughter name´s Jane Christmas Austen, but time when Tom met Jane was at Christmas. Jane Christmas Austen was born in July or June. Of course she named from Jane Paul but second name is special. Tom said that Jane´s was her boyish love, but I think he´s really loves her. I´m sorry for my english.

  • I also think that he really loved her. But unfortunatly not everybody can follow his/her heart some have to think about money and supporting their family, as Tom had to do.

    A similar story is the one of John Keats and Fanny Brawne. Their lovestory is currently shown in cinema. The film is called "Bright Star". I recommend that. I liked it, although it is not as good as Becoming Jane.

  • I was in the movie as an extra. Some pointless information, and an incredibly boring job...

  • Have you been one of the dancers?

  • why is this video so sad? ='( but nice vid!

  • @vardsmith haha, i almost forgot that becoming jane was probably made around 2005. instead of jane's period itself. and i was 'this person is still alive?!' ahhaha sorry lol what was your role btw

  • @panto880 me too! hahaha

  • I have to say this video took me to early 19th century for a moment.

  • cheers,dear! that was a excellent gift for me..

    "boyish love" :( maybe for u but never for me :)

  • To say firstly, this is an utterly fantastic video. Secondly, I followed up the picture of Tom Lefroy on wikipedia, and he was rather unattractive. For that must have been done in his later years. But oh my gosh! have you seen a picture of him at google images? He may not be in the likeness if the extremely attractive James McAvoy, but in his younger years, about the time Austen knew him, he was very handsome. Very handsome.
