Sense and Sensibility (1995) | GThe Dashwood sisters, Elinor (Emma Thompson) and Marianne (Kate Winslet), find themselves in reduced circumstances after their father's death, swapping an affluent life for a modest one in Devonshire. Sensible Elinor conceals her feelings for the reserved Edward Ferrars. Passionate Marianne is swept into a romance with the charming Mr Willoughby (Hugh Grant), despite the steady devotion of family friend Colonel Brandon (Alan Rickman). Directed by Ang Lee (The Wedding Banquet, Brokeback Mountain) and adapted by Thompson from Jane Austen's novel, Sense and Sensibility turns a story of class and family expectation into something warm and unmistakably human.
15 min intermission.
