Trivia
The beige dress with paisley bodice worn by a guest at Fanny's wedding is the same costume Sabina Franklyn (Jane Bennet) wears at Longbourn in Pride and Prejudice (1980), Rachel Fielding (Mrs. Benson) wears in Princesse Caraboo (1994), Julie Cox (Annabella Milbanke) wears to read Byron's poetry book in Byron (2003), and Freema Agyeman (Tattycoram) wears on the Marseilles wharf in La petite Dorritt (2008). The same costume is also worn by an extra on the Marseilles wharf in La vengeance de Monte Cristo (2002).

Quotes
Jane Austen: [reads to Cassandra from first draft of Persuasion] More than seven years were gone since this little history of sorrowful interest had reached its close;
Jane Austen: She had been forced into prudence in her youth, she learned romance as she grew older: the natural sequel of an unnatural beginning.She had used him ill, deserted and disappointed him; and worse, she had shewn a feebleness of character in doing so, which his own decided, confident temper could not endure. She had given him up to oblige others.
Jane Austen: She hoped to be wise and reasonable in time; but alas! alas! she must confess to herself that she was not wise yet.
Cassandra Austen: I don't know how you have say it without tears.
Jane Austen: I don't cry at anything that pays me money

Good, somewhat accurate

This is a good movie for those who love Jane Austen (and similar movies). In the beginning i had to get used to this Jane but when i did i could get lost in the movie. A brilliant movie with a lot of accuracy about Jane's life. Of course not all of it is accurate but they are forgiven since this is a movie and not a documentary. People can't help comparing this movie with "becoming Jane" but this movie basically picks up where "becoming Jane" left of. All in all a must watch for fans of Austen and other period drama movies.
