A story about the endurance of true love, this novel by Jane Austen pits the obligation of family duty against the importance of following one's own heart. Anne Elliot (Amanda Root) was once very much in love and engaged to a poor sailor, Frederick Wentworth. However, his lack of fortune and class distinction drew ire from her wealthy father, and she was persuaded to break off the engagement. Years later, Captain Wentworth (Ciarán Hinds) returns, now prominent, rich, and bitter over the love that was denied him. Anne must convince him that her love is still true and that she will not be persuaded against marriage again, before he chooses another.
