\nPersuasion<\/span><\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nSince I’ve never read the book and I’ve only watched the movie in bits and pieces, I decided to finally sit down and give the Persuasion<\/i> film a lot. Though I didn’t care much for the style of filming, I found both the story and the soundtrack intriguing. The strings and the piano in this piece are very moving and emotional with an air of romance. This piece suits historicals, perhaps contemporaries and fantasties as well depending on the style of writing.<\/span><\/div>\n
