"Lost in Austen is a four-part 2008 British television series for the ITV network, written by Guy Andrews as a fantasy adaptation of Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. Loosely following the plot of Austen's novel, it sees a modern girl somehow transported into the events of the book via a portal located in her bathroom."
For anyone who loves Pride and Prejudice (especially the BBC version), this is the movie for you! The BBC series, as well as Colin Firth, are even referred to in this movie by Amanda Price, the main character. You might even want to review some of that story to fully appreciate all the little nuances in Lost in Austen. For those not familiar with P&P, you might want to skip this, as it may become rather confusing. Take note, this movie is 180 minutes since it was a four part mini-series, but well worth it!

I don't know how it's possible that I didn't know about this, but I am totally ordering it from netflix! (if I can sneak it by Josh of course!) Sci-fi meets Jane Austen? It's like it was made for me!
