Description

In this Episode of Lost in Frenchlation we talk to Laura Piani, the writer and director of 'Jane Austen Wrecked My Life,' a new romantic comedy about a woman who lives between the pages and struggles to finish her own story. Laura shares with us why she decided to direct, what inspired this story, and how she chose to show the work of Jane Austen in a new light.


 


We delve into some of the autobiographical elements of the film: The main character works at the famed Shakespeare and Co. as did Laura herself-- and discuss the male archetypes in the films wonderfully funny love triangle, and the best book Laura ever read.
