Reviews
Praise for Whit Stillman's film Love & Friendship "With biting humor, Stillman makes Love & Friendship an accessible battle of the aristocratic sexes and a delight for Austen acolytes who've awaited a Lady Susan adaptation." -Huffington Post "Zippy and witty and gorgeous."- Flavorwire "Jane Austen has never been funnier.... [ Love & Friendship is] flat-out hilarious.... One of the deftest feats of literary interpolation in ages. And it grafts wicked surprises-things even Austen didn't quite dare conceive, plot-wise-right onto the merry finale."- Telegraph "A supremely elegant and delicately filigreed adaptation of Jane Austen's epistolary novella Lady Susan .... [Stillman] knows just how to give her pointed social satire an extra stab of wink-wink postmodern drollery without breaking the spell."- Variety "Delightfully droll .... Stillman so effortlessly, elegantly bridges the gap between his conniving aristocrats and Austen's that it's difficult to say where one's sensibility ends and the other's begins." -New York Post "The perfect marriage between Stillman's absurdist wit and Austen's period manners ."-Deadline "You can't help but love Lady Susan because of the evident joy she takes in being so duplicitous. Her energy is infectious."- Guardian

Synopsis
A sharp comedy of manners, and a fiendishly funny treat for Jane Austen and Whit Stillman fans alike. Impossibly beautiful, disarmingly witty, and completely self-absorbed: Meet Lady Susan Vernon, both the heart and the thorn of Love & Friendship . Recently widowed with a daughter who's coming of age as quickly as their funds are dwindling, Lady Susan makes it her mission to find them wealthy husbands -- and fast. But when her attempts to secure their futures result only in the wrath of a prominent conquest's wife and the title of 'most accomplished coquette in England', Lady Susan must rethink her strategy. Unannounced, she arrives at her brother-in-law's country estate. Here she intends to take refuge -- in no less than luxury, of course -- from the colorful rumors trailing her, while finding another avenue to 'I do'. Before the scandalizing gossip can run its course, though, romantic triangles ensue., *NOW A MAJOR FILM STARRING KATE BECKINSALE, CHLOE SEVIGNY & STEPHEN FRY* ACCLAIM FOR THE BOOK: "Lady Susan remains deliciously wicked" ( Vogue ); "Very, very funny" ( New York Times ), " A] delicately sincere inversion of Austen's amused irony" ( New York Review of Books ); "Quirky and hilarious" ( Publishers Weekly ); "An eccentrically cheeky tribute" ( New Yorker ) A sharp comedy of manners, and a fiendishl y funny treat for Jane Austen and Whit Stillman fans alike Impossibly beautiful, disarmingly witty, and completely self-absorbed: Meet Lady Susan Vernon, both the heart and the thorn of Love & Friendship .
