Becoming Jane 成为简·奥斯汀
Jane Austen (Anne Hathaway) is the youngest daughter of Reverend Austen and his wife (Julie Walters) and has yet to find a suitable husband. She wishes to be a writer, to the dismay of her mother and proud delight of her father (James Cromwell).
Thomas Lefroy (James McAvoy) is a promising lawyer with a bad reputation, which he describes as "typical" for peers of that era. After a bad first impression upon meeting him, Jane cannot stand the arrogant Irishman. She turns down the affections of numerous men, including Mr. Wisley (Laurence Fox), the nephew of the wealthy Lady Gresham (Maggie Smith). Wisley proposes, but Jane ultimately rejects him due to lack of affection. The mischievous Tom — later the inspiration for Pride and Prejudice's Mr. Darcy — continues his advances and Jane begins to take the idea of marriage seriously. The two get to know each other gradually, however, and eventually they fall in love...
简·奥斯汀（安妮·海瑟薇 Anne Hathaway 饰）的一生是否如她的文字那样充满曲折的过程和完满的结局？《成为简》用传记方式描述她的一生：她的母亲竭力为她撮合婚事，对象是上层社会的有钱人。但是简不接受没有爱情的婚姻，认为女人要靠自己的能力去养活自身。于是，她拒绝贵族瓦斯莱先生的求婚，爱上了心灵相通的汤姆?勒弗罗伊（詹姆斯·麦卡沃伊 James McAvoy 饰）。好事多磨，有人从中作梗，导致汤姆家人并不赞成二人婚事，汤姆决定携简私奔。但是这样一来，汤姆的经济来源就会被切断，简亦将面临着世俗的压力和贫困的生活。到底二人在私奔路上会走得多远？会不会有美满的结局？
