Beautiful widow Lady Susan Vernon (Kate Beckinsale) arrives at the estate of her in-laws to wait out the colourful rumours of her dalliances which are circulating through polite society.

While ensconced there, she attracts the simultaneous attentions of the young, handsome Reginald DeCourcy, the rich and naive Sir James Martin and the divinely attractive, but married, Lord Manwaring. However, cunningly engineering such matters for her own benefit is something Lady Susan is quite used to. Based on the Jane Austen novella 'Lady Susan' and set in the high society of the 1790s, acclaimed writer-director Whit Stillman's 'Love and Friendship' is an exquisitely witty and devious comedy of Machiavellian matchmaking and heartbreaking, with a note-perfect ensemble cast including Chloe Sevigny and Stephen Fry.
