Persuasion (deleted scenes)

Back


(Disclaimer: I hope no one involved with the production of this film will be offended by my uploading these clips. I just thought I would do it as a service to their fans who, I think, will like the adaptation even more with the extra scenes.) When I heard that PBS was cutting seven minutes out of the new BBC production of Jane Austen's "Persuasion" I was not a happy camper. I decided to figure out what had been cut out and have managed to clip the main missing scenes together. Some other small bits were trimmed, but these are the ones I wish they had kept (particularly the conversations between Capt. Wentworth and Capt. Harville!!). Other scenes that were shortened include: - Lady Russell's first conversation with Sir Walter - Lady Russell's conversation with Anne (in Anne's room) about Capt. Wentworth - Mary's complaining about being ill when Anne first visits her - The dancing scene after dinner with the Crofts - Walking across the log and then walking across the field - Anne putting on her hat, getting ready to visit Mrs. Smith - Everyone getting seated at the concert at the Pump Rooms They also shortened Anne's runs through Bath trying to find Capt. Wentworth, and their first kiss was edited down as well. There are several versions of those sections on YouTube already, though, so I will not add them myself (hopefully I managed to get some of the same tags and they will pop up as similar vids). Be sure to buy the DVD and the whole, unedited film will be there! Can't wait until my copy arrives!!
