Amanda Root originally was wanted by Ang Lee and Emma Thompson for the role of Marianne Dashwood in their adaptation of another Jane Austen film, Sense and Sensibility (1995), and she performed the role at a read-through of an early draft of the script before she was cast in Persuasion.
Made for British television and originally screened by the BBC in April 1995, the film was released theatrically around the rest of the world.
Susan Fleetwood (Lady Russell) passed away 5 months after the release of the film.
Because of the meager budget, the closing shots of Captain Wentworth's ship were reused from The Bounty (1984).
"Captain Harvile: Poor Phoebe, she would not have forgotten him so soon. It was not in her nature. Anne Elliot: It would not be in the nature of any woman who truly loved. Captain Harvile: Do you claim that for your sex? Anne Elliot: We do not forget you as soon as you forget us. We cannot help ourselves. We live at home, quiet, confined, and our feelings prey upon us. You always have business of some sort or other to take you back into the world. Captain Harvile: I won't allow it to be any more man's nature than women's to be inconstant or to forget those they love or have loved. I believe the reverse. I believe... Let me just observe that all histories are against you, all stories, prose, and verse. I do not think I ever opened a book in my life which did not have something to say on women's fickleness. Anne Elliot: But they were all written by men."
"Lady Russell: Captain Wentworth Captain Wentworth: Lady Russell Lady Russell: You, have an extraordinary ability to discompose my friend, sir. Captain Wentworth: And you have an extraordinary ability to influence her, ma'am, for which I find it hard to forgive you."
