Movie Description:
From the screenwriter and producer of Pride and Prejudice comes a deliciously engaging costume drama in the tradtion of JaneAusten. Set in a richlyportrayed society well-stocked with eccentric nobles and gossipy villagers, the story centers around 17-year-old Molly Gibson, the only daughter of arespected country doctor. The well- ordered world of Molly`s childhood is soon to be complicated by new people andunexpected situations. Most devastatingis her father`s decision to remarry after many years of widowhood. Molly`s faltering efforts to cope gracefully with animpossible stepmother, abefuiling stepsister, burdensome secretsand burgeoning romance ring as true today as when Elizabeth Gaskell wrote Wives and Daughters in 1965.
