My favorite bit is perhaps the "waistwatch," which points out that for some reason Jane Austen is wearing gowns that are entirely too early for the period of the film. Or maybe it's the shot of Laurence Fox with the caption that just reads "[deserves better than Jane]." But the whole thing amused me. And it has the virtue, unlike myself, of being concise.

austen, becoming jane, clothing not of the renaissance
