Sense & Sensibility

Recommended Posts

I have really enjoyed this new adaptation on the BBC,although I was such a fan of Ang Lees movie with Emma Thompson,that I very nearly didn't watch it at all :roll:

The cast are all gorgeous, the scenery is stunning & THAT cottage is just the sort of place I could live :P

The girl playing Elinor sounds just like Emma Thompson,doesn't she?

And the girl playing Marianne looks like Princess Bea.

 

Plenty of men in breeches & white shirts too,which is always a good thing :wink:

I am very much looking forward to the concluding part this weekend,& would recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it yet - I am sure there must be catch up viewings on somewhere 8)

I felt the same way Cinnamon :roll: Why try to improve on perfection, I love

the Ang Lee film and have it on video. This adaptation has been great though, you can't beat a costume drame on BBC :)

I am looking forward to the other new one on next week too,'Larkrise to Candleford',which also looks wonderful 8) [/color]

 

I am not at all sure about Larkrise from watching the trailers. I read it years ago and it was a social documentary of the way people lived back then. I remember crying when reading the book when a very old couple who had been together for 50 years were sent to seperate work houses when they became a burden to the community. This adaptation looks quite different to how I remember the book :( The cast look promising :)
