While Mansfield Park doesn't boast the high calibre Hollywood star wattage and gloss of Sense and Sensibility, it offers a more thought-provoking viewpoint.

Reeling Reviews
...Rozema and her superb cast display a conviction uncommon to costume dramas....Much cinematic invention... -- 4 out of 5 stars - Watch More Than Once
Premiere
Mansfield Park is quick and funny, and a refreshing break from period-film stuffiness.
Film.com
...Rozema's untraditional approach to costume drama can be bracing....[The] performances are strong, and playwright Harold Pinter is particularly good...
USA Today
Rating: 4/5 --
Ms. Rozema has made a film whose satiric bite is sharper than that of the usual high-toned romantic costume drama.
New York Times
Rozema's handling of the entangled amours and social gamesmanship at Mansfield Park is delightful...It's impure Austen, but potent moviemaking.

Product Description:
This sterling adaptation of Austen's third published novel, set in early 19th century Portsmouth, England, concerns Fanny Price (O'Connor), an intelligent young woman who is sent to live with her mother's wealthy family. Settling into her new life, Fanny is treated poorly by everyone except her cousin Edmund (Miller). The pair connect immediately, and pretty soon deeper feelings emerge. The arrival of a conniving brother and sister duo cause a commotion, forcing Fanny to decide if she should succumb to her material surroundings, or remain true to her heart.
