some of my favorite details in the Austenland movie (it's been about four years since I re-read the book) (and there are some differences between those of course) are those blatant inaccuracies or Not Austen things that are part of the Austenland experience that come from much later authors and pop culture. Ex the whole Ballroom thing because, as I know other Austen readers know, this ballroom romance/ proposal thing is... not Austen. Maybe it's from Georgette Heyer?? idk I didn't pay enough attention to the few Heyer books I've read to know if she's at fault for this. But my point was about these various inaccuracies because of course Austenland is not historical re-enactment, it's very expensive roleplaying and so of course most of the experience is based on pop culture despite Mrs. Wattlesbrook's (verbal) insistence on authenticity.
