Amanda and Dayelle are packing their parasols and heading straight into Jane Austen’s Persuasion. From the classic 1995 adaptation with all its Regency elegance and aching restraint to the Netflix version. A Modern, bold take. Between Anne Elliot’s quiet strength, Captain Wentworth’s smoldering stares, and enough longing glances to fill a seaside promenade, this is peak Austen territory. We’re talking second chances, missed moments, and two very different takes on the same timeless love story. AND Should you watch it or read it. We’ve got thoughts (and sighs) to spare.
