How long does it take to watch Persuasion?
Persuasion is 1 hour and 47 minutes, so not too long. Some previous adaptations of the novel have been 2 hours or more, so by comparison this is relatively short. Still, if you’re on the east coast you might just want to wait until the evening or weekend to watch rather than staying up until almost 5 a.m.!
Are you looking forward to watching Persuasion? Do you plan to stay up late to watch the movie tonight?
