The film club presents "Mansfield Park (1999 film)"

The film club presents a film in English once a month on a Saturday afternoon.

This showing will be of Mansfield Park, a 1999 British romantic comedy-drama film based on Jane Austen’s 1814 novel of the same name, written and directed by Patricia Rozema.

Fanny (Frances O’Connor), born into a poor family, is sent away to live with wealthy uncle Sir Thomas (Harold Pinter), his wife (Lindsay Duncan) and their four children, where she’ll be brought up for a proper introduction to society. She is treated unfavorably by her relatives, except for her cousin Edmund (Jonny Lee Miller), whom she grows fond of. However, Fanny’s life is thrown into disarray with the arrival of worldly Mary Crawford (Embeth Davidtz) and her brother Henry (Alessandro Nivola).

Screening begins at 3 o’clock sharp and will be followed by a discussion in English. This activity is free and open to all library members.
