Dakota Johnson Teaches You How to Get Over an Ex in This ‘Persuasion’ Clip
Anne Elliot (Dakota Johnson) is in a tough spot. Years prior to the events of historical romance Persuasion, she was persuaded (get it?) to reject dashing seaman Frederick Wentworth (Cosmo Jarvis) by her snobby loved ones. Now Wentworth has come crashing back into her life, more successful, handsome and charming than ever... at the exact moment Anne’s posh family is on the brink of bankruptcy. If anyone is ready to give you advice on at least trying to get over an ex — it’s Anne. That’s why she’s leading a helpful seven-step video guide to moving on ahead of Persuasion’s July 15 premiere.
“Firstly, cry,” Anne narrates over a torrent of shots of her weeping throughout Persuasion, based on the novel of the same name by Jane Austen. If the course of true love never did run smooth, the road of heartbreak is even rockier. “Love me or kill me now — I can’t bear it,” Anne complains. Anne also recommends some helpful tips, like “listening to those well-meaning friends” and “finding a dashing new suitor.” Anne’s apparent rebound choice, the well-heeled Mr. Elliot, played by Henry Golding, makes a very splashy debut in the clip.
But breakups are messy. So not all of Anne’s advice is perfect. Watch the full video to see some of her more embarrassing moments, along with some very sexy prolonged eye contact between supposed “exes” Anne and Wentworth. Maybe this love isn’t quite so dead after all.
