Another Jane Austen fan realising a dream by participating in the film is Tamzin Merchant. She was cast as Georgiana, Darcy’s sister, after writing a letter to the casting director and explaining how she was perfect for the part. After meetings, Tamzin was indeed offered the role, even though she had no previous acting experience. The novice threw herself into the work, even learning to play the piano selections that Georgiana would be playing on-screen.
Stay awesome, girl!!
Georgiana was so cute in the movie!
so thats the advice we needed from the director - just write him a letter saying we’re perfect for the role.
That is absolutely delightful - and so determined! I like seeing examples of that kind of dedication… helps to balance...
