Austenland is movie about a Jane Austen amusement park of sorts where women go to escape modern life. Their marketing campaign, perhaps unsurprisingly, is entirely focused on women.
Austenland, based on the Shannon Hale novel of the same name, will debut in theaters in Los Angeles and New York on August 14th. For every Jane Austen fan who wants to live in Austen’s world, this film may be the solution.
The first clip for the Stephenie Meyer-produced Sundance film Austenland, written and directed by Jerusha Hess (Napoleon Dynamite) and starring Keri Russell and Bret McKenzie, has been released.
