Becoming Jane: Husbands and Lovers Clip

McAvoy's accent in this film sounds far more British than Irish and seeing as McAvoy really has a Scottish accent and that is pretty close to Irish, he should have changed his accent only a tad. Then it would fit better since he is playing a Irish character.

That SECOND glance does it! Wisley sees it too.

Right! The weird dynamic back then was that 'passion' was not considered something that would secure a husband (only a lover). Jane Austen struggles with that in her novels, too. I like to think we have moved on!

The essence of LOVE is in all Jane Austen's books...for me, she was and still is the best writer ever...She was independent, and she wasn't afraid about living by her pen...

James McAvoy <3<3<3

they was like so into each other
the eyes
love the movie
i wish there's part 2

This whole film is incredibly sexy...and nothing but chaste kisses and some hand holding...WOW! 2 stunning actors with incredible romantic chemistry (OMG James McAvoy is hot) I bawl my eyes out at the end every time (I know...pathetic)

ur not alone lol

Jane is not offended. She is completely flustered upon hearing "As opposed to a lover?" because she keenly feels the heat of the attraction between her and Tom....as evidenced by what unfolds in the forthcoming scene! James McAvoy....sigh. Also riveting in "Atonement".

She was offended that it turns out that she was pursuing both a husband and a lover.She had no passion for Wisley but was with him at the ball,and on the other hand she danced with Tom,which means "You are pursuing a husband-Wistley but also a lover-me".
