    Editorial Reviews

    Adapted from the novel by Jane Austen, the British miniseries Mansfield Park starred Sylvestra La Touzel as Fanny Price, a "poor relation" deposited at the doorstep of the titular country estate at age ten. Raised by her cynical uncle, Sir Thomas Bertram (Bernard Hepton), the ugly-duckling Fanny was ignored or rebuffed by everyone on the estate except for her cousin, Edmund (Nicholas Farrell). Eventually blossoming into a beautiful woman, Fanny found herself the romantic bone of contention between Edmund and neighboring aristocrat Henry Crawford (Robert Burbage). Though fond of both men, Fanny was not about to make an impulsive choice between them; both Edward and Henry would have to prove their mettle to her before either man could claim her hand in marriage. Telecast in six hour-long installments by the BBC in 1986, Mansfield Park was remade 13 years later as a theatrical feature film. Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

    Very Impressed.by JoannaTX

    October 21, 2008: I'll admit these aren't the best-looking actors, but it's accurate and faithful to the theme of the book. It was honestly very enjoyable. The only things I didn't like much was that sometimes it was a bit more like stage-acting which I find very annoying. The two main actors also weren't my favorites, but they did okay - with an obvious lack of chemistry. The most annoying thing: The elder brother Tom was OBVIOUSLY younger than the actor playing Edmund - it annoyed me to no end. Mrs. Norris seemed likes a shrewish rat - just as I imagined her. Lol. On the whole, it was very good, certainly better than the 1998 version. The Masterpiece Theatre version is also okay.

    I Also Recommend: Sense and Sensibility, Jane Austen's Emma, Masterpiece Theatre's Northanger Abbey, Masterpiece: Mansfield Park, Central Park.

    a very good movieby Anonymous

    June 10, 2006: I loved this movie. I was a little disappointed in the setting because you could tell that it was indeed a set...but I really enjoyed Fanny's performance...she is the kind of woman I would love to be. I'm glad it all turned out good for her..... her Aunt Norris was a pain in the you -know-what but I think if she had been different the ending would have been different to.
