Most of you being Jane Austen-aholics must have noticed some of the same sets were used in Becoming Jane. Catherine's house was the Bennet house. Tom Lefroy's uncle's house was the house Catherine stayed in in Bath. Did you notice the stone arch?
Also the place where she catches the coach looked like where Tom and Jane stopped at the pub. Not for sure on that, though.
Are you sure?
shareSome of it I'm very sure. Where John Thorpe suggests Cathy go on a coach ride with her he is standing on the same staircase that Tom Lefroy slide down the bannister and later the special kiss or near kiss. Don't you recognize the stone archway in Bath? That's the same stone arch prominently featured in BJ which was supposed to be in London.
Cathy's house is 100% definitely the Austen house in the movie Becoming Jane. In fact, I swear the room that Henry meets Cathy's mother looks like the same room Jane first met Tom. Tom was sitting on the windowsill where in Northanger Abbey there kids are sitting on the windowsill.
Also remember the path Jane ran to to *****SPOILER elope with Tom? That's the same path and gate that Cathy comes back home through.
Plus inside the Austen/Moreland home same staircase railing where Cassandra and her boyfriend see each other in bedclothes and same place where Cathy tells her mom she loved Henry.
All I recognized right away was the pathway to Cathy's home when she came off the coach after being sent home.
shareactually now that I looked again, I don't think the staircase is the same but definitely Austen home and cement Archway with sort of crest design of top that carriages go through were in both movies.
shareIt would be really cool to find out exactly where/what these places are. I love these kinds of details. :-)
