The 2011 adaptation of Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre is sure to fulfill your longing for romance and drama. Jane, a plain and poor governess (played by the not-at-all plain Mia Wasikowska), accepts a position teaching at Thornfield Hall, where she soon has a strange encounter with the master of the house, Mr. Rochester (Michael Fassbender). Although Rochester's brusqueness and surliness initially put Jane off, the two soon develop an amiable companionship. But Mr. Rochester's rumored impending marriage, and the strange, macabre events transpiring at Thornfield Hall, may ultimately leave Jane brokenhearted.  

Becoming Jane is a lush, romantic film starring Anne Hathaway as Jane Austen that's loosely based on historic events. It chronicles Jane's enduring love for Thomas Lefroy (James MacAvoy), an Irish lawyer who, although he offends Jane when they first meet, quickly wins her affection. Whereas her family expresses dismay at Jane's literary aspirations, Thomas supports her career goals. The two quickly fall in love, but his familial obligations may stand in the way of their happiness.

Based on the novel of the same name by Karen Joy Fowler, The Jane Austen Book Club follows a group of Austen fans who agree to meet once a month to discuss one of her novels. Founded by 60-something Bernadette (Kathy Baker), who longs to help the younger members find romantic happiness, the club members soon find that life imitates art as their own love lives come to reflect many of the relationships in Austen's work. 

Belle director Amma Asante described the 2013 film as a combination of "the Jane Austen elements we know so well–the marriage market, the lives of girls growing up into society ladies, the romantic longing–combined with a story about the end of slavery." This emotional, sumptuous movie is based on the true story of Dido Elizabeth Belle (played by Gugu Mbatha-Raw), the daughter of an African woman and a Royal Navy captain. The real-life Dido was raised by her great-uncle, a lord chief justice who presided over landmark slavery cases. 

The film follows Dido and her cousin Elizabeth's search for marriage, using their courtships as a means to explore the politics and racism of the era. As Dido and Elizabeth sit for a portrait that Dido worries won't represent them as equals, Dido's great-uncle rules on a historic court case that may pave the road to abolition–and she finds herself falling for John Davinier (Sam Reid), her great-uncle's apprentice.
