Now, having actually seen the full film, dear readers, it pains me to confirm for you that many of our initial concerns were not only valid-they probably did not go far enough. Or “has anyone involved with this project ever actually read the book this is supposed to be based on?” “Did they accidentally make Emma and put a Persuasion label on it?” some could wonder.
“Is someone at Netflix on drugs?” some Austen fans might have wondered at various points during the trailer. Because while the clip boasted a charmingly colorful aesthetic and slick Fleabag-style narration, it was jarringly and distinctly at odds with the original novel’s tone.
When the first trailer for Netflix’s new adaptation of Persuasion dropped, many Jane Austen fans were naturally skeptical.
