Jane Austen's Mafia!

• Comedy
• Crime

A cheerfully anarchic collision of literary tradition and mobster mayhem, *Jane Austen's Mafia!* reimagines the familiar tropes of both the classic novel and the gangster film through a comedic lens. This isn’t a gritty underworld depiction; it’s a vibrant, outlandish romp following a mafia scion’s unexpected inheritance and relocation to Italy, where he attempts to apply Austenian social maneuvering to the brutal realities of organized crime. The film’s humor stems not from slapstick, but from the startling juxtaposition of refined societal rules and violent behavior, highlighted by the protagonist’s unlikely friendship with a local postman. It's a surprisingly lighthearted exploration of familial duty and cultural dislocation, serving as a playful send-up of both source material and genre expectations.
