discover the trailer for “Jane Austen Ruined My Life”, a delicious romantic comedy

A mixture of awkwardness and charm, Camille Rutherford lights up Laura Piani's first feature film, in theaters in January 2025. We are exclusively revealing its trailer.

Lhe literature that brings only benefit is a title with mischievous irony. Which immediately encourages us to know more about the person that the 19th century English novelist, an early feminist, would cause to suffer. Her name is Agathe. She is a young woman of today but not made for her mercantile times. A fervent reader, she works in a Parisian bookstore, dreams of becoming a writer but finds what she writes rubbish. By loving Jane Austen too much, the big flower with brown curls finds itself prevented from blossoming. This is also true when it comes to the heart and sex. Agathe is sensitive, her charm is certain, but she has an unfortunate tendency to stumble and fail. In this graceful clumsy role, Camille Rutherford turns out to be perfect.

For her first feature film, Laura Piani signs a witty romantic comedy that follows in the famous vein of those of the 1990s (Four Weddings and a Funeral), by revisiting it in French fashion and in the post-#MeToo era. Jane Austen ruined my life is a delicious initiatory journey, between reason and feelings, Paris and a residency for young authors so cosy surrounded of verdure so british. If the scones, the melancholy drizzle, the poetry and the humor appeal to you, don't miss the appointment.

Jane Austen ruined my life will be released in theaters on January 22, 2025.
