OK...just the title says "Chick Flick." And it pretty much was, but it was a pretty good one. And The Jane Austen Book Club featured a couple of my favorite actresses, Maria Bello and the luscious Amy Brenneman (excuse me...hubba hubba).
The story revolves around a group of women, some of them coming off some bad moments who form a book club to read the six Jane Austen novels. Each of the women (and the obligatory guy) would take charge of the discussion each month, and the group would read one novel each month.
They find many aspects of the works to coincide with life crap that they are going through. But the dialogue and the characters are not cheaply done, cardboard cutouts. All are very well drawn with skillful performances.
OK...so I watched a chick flick...at least it was a good one!
