Fake Jane Austen’s fight club trailer goes viral on the Internet
July 26th, 2010 - 11:57 pm ICT by Aishwarya BhattLos Angeles, July 26 (THAINDIAN NEWS) A trailer of a fake fight club prevalent in the times of Jane Austen has gone viral on the Internet.
The trailer is just over 3 minutes long, but it is extremely well made and the inherent humor in the trailer is manifest in each and every moment. The trailer basically depicts the life and times in the Jane Austen era, if they had a fight club way back then. This is a recent trend in which the classic literature stories get a new shot of life, when they are infused with dark humor in keeping with the times.
Needless to say, if Jane Austen was a brave member of the fighting squad then a lot of the males back then would have read ‘Pride and Prejudice’.
Jane Austen was born on the 16th of December 1775 and she breathed her last on the 18th of July 1817. She is an acclaimed English novelist whose works are read even today and they are also adapted many times to suit the current era. Her books have been adapted into movies too. Her major literary works include Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice and Emma amongst others.
