This is surely the closest there is to a perfect film. There is the "dream cast," Ang Lee, a "dream director," costumes, sets and settings, music, Emma Thompson's screenplay, and all the vital behind-the-scenes work. Most important of all, I think most people would agree, is Austen's brilliant novel. Watching "Sense and Sensibility" is sheer pleasure. It feels good to watch this movie.

"Piracy is our only option" has become a joke in our household since watching this movie. It has become the logical solution to all problems :)

1:38 is such a well-done shot. It follows Elinor and Edward until they walk off and then Mrs Dashwood enters and we get a close up to see her smile. Finally the camera turns up to see Fanny. It's all done in one shot. Beautiful.

That is so true. Also, toward the beginning when Edward walks down the hallway toward you while listening to the music. That shot was both simple and perfect.

When Emma Thompson says, "We can't even earn ours" (fortune) that is, it's an important point. Elinor and Marriane can't go out and get jobs. If they did, their choices would be governess, housekeeper, or servant of some kind, and that would disqualify them from moving in the social circles they were accustomed to. Despite their straitened financial circumstances, they were still members of the upper class. One inflexible requirement, however, of remaining in that echelon, was that one could never do work of any kind.

I cannot believe how well done this movie is. Emma Thompson should have received an academy award for the last scene alone. What a fantastic movie. What is the name of this song. I cannot get it out of my heart nor do I want to try! I watch it daily and cry every time I hear it.

Ah totally. When Col. Brandon first sees Marianne...his face...that is one of my most favorite movie scenes of all time. That and when he carries her in from the rain. I love you Alan Rickman!

I teated myself to the DVD, but also got the 'book of the film' with it, it is amazing to read the que's and directions whilst still having an image of the film in my head...Utterly wonderous, splendid and I love it.. I also watch it like @gillwilkinsongw every couple of months, along with P&P (1995), another fabulous production.. *Ahh bliss* :0)x

Elinor talks of women not being allowed to work. However, back in the mansion house lots of women will be working an eighteen hour day. Also, at this time women working in mills, shops snd down mines. However, these are poor females, Working Class women and therefore of no interest to privileged middle class women like Elinor. It's the same today.

Would you really like to have lived at a time without anaesthetics, antiseptics or antibiotics? Read an actual historical account of a surgical operation at this time without the aid of the above. I think you might just change your mind.
