Austenland (2013 Jerusha Hess)

Yeesh.

"Would people really do stuff like this?" I asked Q.
"People have Star Trek themed weddings" she replied.

Everyone looks uneasy and I blame Jerusha Hess for this (her debut) and also the script which she co-wrote. Keri Russell cannot carry the film. Also with Jennifer Coolidge, JJ Feild etc. Bad accents abound.

Might have been better with more focus on 'backstage' and if the actors really were completely different in life. But then what do I know? I have never written a screenplay.
