## Description

Emma Thompson stars in the captivating romance based on Jane Austen's classic novel of two sisters' search for love amid the strict rules of society.

Review: A riveting portrait of human relationships & a telling social commentary - I have watched this adaptation of Jane Austen's Sense & Sensibility more than a dozen times since it was released, and it never fails to enthrall me. It has everything one would expect of a classic movie - a good plot[ thanks in large part to Emma Thompson's excellent screenplay], stellar casting, gorgeous sets, costumes and lush scenery of the entrancing English countryside. The story of Sense & Sensibility is at heart a warm and insightful portrait of two sisters and their relationship to each other, as well as their romantic interests and a powerful social commentary of society in regency England. Those who are familiar with Jane Austen's works will appreciate how perceptive an observer she was of society at large and remarkable in her capability to capture powerful human emotions on paper. The plot of Sense & Sensibility the movie revolves around the Dashwood sisters, Elinor & Marianne, who upon the death of their beloved father are forced to move [together with their mother and younger sister] to a cottage in the English countryside and live on a paltry 500 pounds a year [due to English law at the time where property passes down through the male line]. Elinor [played excellently by the talented Emma Thompson] is the older, and more wise [sensible] sister, who tries not to let her emotions rule her, in direct contrast to her younger, feisty sister Marianne [a gorgeous English rose, Kate Winslet] who is passionate, outspoken and open in displaying her emotions. Elinor falls for Edward Ferrars [an awkward yet deferential & handsome Hugh Grant] who due to a youthful indiscretion is unable to follow through on his attachment to Elinor. Marianne, on the other hand falls hard for dashing rogue Willoughby [Greg Wise], ignoring propriety and openly displaying her affections. The rest of the story deals with how the Dashwood sisters resolve their plight, and the story is made even more compelling by the other characters, who may be deemed minor roles, certainly add to the depth of the storytelling - Colonel Brandon, a retired officer, who though much older, harbors a deep affection for Marianne [played by pre-Severus Snape Alan Rickman], the callous sis-in-law Fanny Dashwood [Harriet Waller], the scheming Lucy Steele [Imogen Stubbs]and numerous other characters, who though secondary to the plot, are certainly memorable. Taiwanese director Ang Lee [of Eat Drink, Man Woman & Wedding Banquet fame] certainly proves his mettle here and manages to flesh out amazing performances from his cast, and delivers a gem of a movie, and a true classic.
Review: Great movie! - Good movie good quality disc. My favorite movie!

Good movie good quality disc. My favorite movie!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the most perfect movies of all time
*by W***2 on February 8, 2025*

Even though this version does not follow the book precisely, it is my favorite of all of the Jane Austen movies. Alan Rickman's performance is a tour de force. Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet are also amazing, as is Hugh Grant. The soundtrack is so gorgeous. It's such a satisfying ending as well, but all Jane Austen books have happy endings, even though they seem impossible to end happily. The casting is so spot on that I can hardly describe it. I can't think of anyone else playing Colonel Brandon, or Elinor, especially. I have seen other versions, and they pale in comparison. This has been one of my favorite movies since the first time I saw it almost 30 years ago. And, by the way, Emma Thompson wrote the script and won best screenplay for it.
