Persuasion

Persuasion 5.6

Dakota Johnson will star in the new film Persuasion, adapted from Jane Austen's novel of the same name, and Tony Award-nominated drama director Kelly Cracknell directs the feature film for the first time. This film is an adaptation of the modern version, which tells the story of Anne Eliot as a trendy, unconventional woman who lives with her snobbish and on the verge of bankruptcy. When the elegant, stylish Frederick Wentworth that Anne had sent away reappeared, she had to make a choice: leave the past behind, or have a second chance to listen to her heart. Ronald Bass ("Rain Man"my Best friend's Wedding") and Alice Victoria Winslow wrote the screenplay, co-produced by Netflix and MRC Film, and began filming in May.
