Synopsis

This film adaptation of Jane Austen's last novel follows Anne Elliot, the daughter of a financially troubled aristocratic family, who is persuaded to break her engagement to Frederick Wentworth, a young sea captain of meager means. Years later, money troubles force Anne's father to rent out the family estate to Admiral Croft, and Anne is again thrown into company with Frederick -- who is now rich, successful and perhaps still in love with Anne.

Scene with POV shot on a carriage at the beginning, very shakey and bumpy. Also some handheld close ups that aren’t very stable, mainly at the start of the film.

Poor or disabled people are looked down on by Anne’s family. Anyone who is not deemed socially advantageous her father abhors.

Not as such, but the main characters family (who are not seen favourably) talk negatively about people's appearences. Her father talks in particular about how sailors are ugly because their skin is very dark (tanned) and weatherbeaten. There are a few similar comments, as well as mentions to the lightness of skin being a positive.

There are also discussions about the differences between men and women, and their gender roles.

We see guns being fired during hunting, but none are used for violence against people.
