YOUTUBE: Jane Austen's Fight Club

Jane Austen has been the author of many books about Victorian women and their societal struggles. Her books have stood the test of time and have even been adapted to modern popular culture in films such as Clueless (a remake of Austen's Emma). Well, according to this parody, there is one Austen story we haven't yet read, this one far ahead of it's time. Introducing, Jane Austen's Fight Club.

Taking obvious inspiration from the cult-film starring Brad Pitt and Edward Norton, and subtle inspiration from some of Austen's true novels, the fake movie trailer is hilarious, not only in concept but also in how the actresses commit to the part. I personally love the victory fist pump at the end, complete with sunglasses and leopard-print coat. Now, this is a classic for the ages!
