“Does this woman always get her way?” demands a character in Whit Stillman’s “Love & Friendship,” a smashing adaptation of Jane Austen’s perky novella “Lady Susan.” The woman in question is, of course, the unscrupulous Lady Susan Vernon (Kate Beckinsale). If she were a man, she might be called a rogue or a swine. Being a woman, though, Lady Susan avoids those particular assaults on her character (though not others). She also usually gets her way.http://www.patriotfiles.com/forum/iipcache/804305.png (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/starsandstripes/militarylife?a=GyTXrsnuR9k:j19hh-9ZJXw:yIl2AUoC8zA) http://www.patriotfiles.com/forum/iipcache/804306.png (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/starsandstripes/militarylife?a=GyTXrsnuR9k:j19hh-9ZJXw:F7zBnMyn0Lo) http://www.patriotfiles.com/forum/iipcache/804307.png (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/starsandstripes/militarylife?a=GyTXrsnuR9k:j19hh-9ZJXw:V_sGLiPBpWU) http://www.patriotfiles.com/forum/iipcache/804308.png (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/starsandstripes/militarylife?a=GyTXrsnuR9k:j19hh-9ZJXw:qj6IDK7rITs) http://www.patriotfiles.com/forum/iipcache/804309.png (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/starsandstripes/militarylife?a=GyTXrsnuR9k:j19hh-9ZJXw:gIN9vFwOqvQ) http://www.patriotfiles.com/forum/iipcache/804310.png (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/starsandstripes/militarylife?a=GyTXrsnuR9k:j19hh-9ZJXw:QXVau8BzmBE)
