a a fan of nearly any period drama and and at that a huge jane austen fan and i be horrify by this adaption . a a fan of the 1999 version of mansfield park and i be constantly compare the two and this fell far short . it felt hugely rush and very one dimensional so that it become boring very quickly . there seem to be no subtly to the relationship and particularly that of fanny and edmund and and little atmosphere despite be set in a beautiful location . despite have look forward to the jane austen season since christmas i turn this off after an hour and go to bed . i will be interested to watch the adaptation of persuasion and northanger abbey and of which i have no much love version and to see if they still manage to bore me in such a manner .
