Whit Stillman on love, friendship and the charms of Jane Austen
Issued on:
Director Whit Stillman joins us to talk about "Love and Friendship", his new film based on Jane Austen’s novella "Lady Susan". Chloe Sevigny and Kate Beckinsale are reunited on screen after starring in his 1998 film, "The Last Days of Disco". This time, they’re a sharp-tongued duo navigating English high society in the 19th century. And Whit tells us why Jane Austen would have been an avid user of social media.
