One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
Living with her snobby family on the brink of bankruptcy, Anne Elliot is an unconforming woman with modern sensibilities. When Fredrick Wentworth the dashing one she once sent away crashes back into her life, Anne must choose between putting the past behind her or listening to her heart when it comes to second chances.
"'Persuasion' is ultimately a beautiful story about forgiveness and second chances. The movie is a modern version of Jane Austen's namesake novel, and though it isn't as successful as the well-received 'Bridget Jones's Diary' (which is also based on the English writer), it is still a pleasant production to watch. The adaptation is irreverent and somewhat bittersweet, but it manages to bring freshness and escape the common place of certain classic book-inspired films."
