Film Description

Keira Knightley stars in two faithful literary adaptations directed by Joe Wright, Atonement (2007), based on the Ian McEwan novel, and Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice (2005).

Set on a sultry summer day in 1935, Atonement begins as an upper-class British family prepares for a dinner party at their country estate. The participants include Briony Tallis, her older sister Cecilia, Robbie Turner, who carries a torch for Cecilia; and various visitors and family members. A series of misperceptions, fuelled by the summer heat and Briony's childish hurts and fevered imagination, lead to a dramatic false accusation that lands Robbie in jail. We meet all three characters five years later in the thick of World War II, as foot soldier Robbie prepares for the Dunkirk evacuation and the two estranged sisters train as nurses in London.

Pride and Prejudice follows the five Bennet sisters as they deal with suitors and love, as their mother desperately schemes to marry them off advantageously.
