Austenland hits theatres on August 16 in USA. I hope it comes to Atlanta area. I read the book by Shannon Hale a few years ago. There is also a book sequel Midnight in Austenland.
The movie looks like so much fun, as was the book, starring Kerri Russell and Jennifer Coolidge -one of my favorite actresses. It is all based on the main characters obsession with all things Jane Austen. She goes on holiday at a Jane Austen resort(for lack of a better name) where you can totally immerse yourself in the period.
I am a devoted Jane Austen reader. I believe Pride and Prejudice is the most perfect novel ever written in English. The spin-off books and movie adaptations are always fun --none as perfect as Jane's books but entertaining.

I also believe there are trailers and Youtube videos.
