The Jane Austen Book Club (2007)

Cast: Maria Bello (Jocelyn), Emily Blunt (Prudie Drummond), Kathy Baker (Bernadette), Amy Brenneman (Sylvia Avila), Maggie Grace (Allegra Avila), Hugh Dancy (Grigg Harris), Jimmy Smits (Daniel Avila), Marc Blucas (Dean Drummond), Kevin Zegers (Trey)
For complete info, see IMDb's The Jane Austen Book Club page.

I can't remember why I added this book to my list, but it was probably a combination of the title (being about a Jane Austen book club when I read so much) and the amazing cast. The cast of The Jane Austen Book Club is amazing. I really wanted to list everyone in my blog, but that'd take so much space. I didn't realize that I'd pretty much recognize the entire cast (though I had to look some of them up on IMDb, I admit).

If you love to read, this is a must see movie! I think those who don't love to read or who aren't fans of Jane Austen can still enjoy this movie, but I'm sure it's a bit more of a "chick flick" because of the romantic undertones and the Jane Austen basis. Not that men can't enjoy Jane Austen's books, but I think women tend to be her bigger fans.

Any fan of reading or romantic movies should rent The Jane Austen Book Club. I really enjoyed this movie and I'm so glad I saw it. Definitely not a movie you had to see in a theatre, since there are no special effects. It's just a great story with an amazing cast!

Grade: A-
