neutral · AI labelView post →I was at a theater today and passed by a large standee for SENSE AND SENSIBILITY, the kind that prints out an entire review. Then, I did a double take, because the review was… MINE?! I don’t normally make a big deal out of being quoted, but a whole standee dedicated to my writing? That’s a first!
positive · AI labelView post →Having watched the new Sense and Sensibility movie, I enjoyed seeing such unusual objects as the clash worn by Catriona Balfe. The clash is a strange piece of headwear but completely made sense in its own era. @metmuseum.org #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

neutral · AI labelView post →I went ahead and bought a copy of Ang Lee / Emma Thompson’s Sense and Sensibility 1995. I simply need access to that movie at all times
positive · AI labelView post →BBC2 is currently showing Ang Lee and Emma Thompson’s Sense and Sensibility. When people ask my favorite film, I may occasionally lie and say, I don’t know, something French, but it’s really, probably, Ang Lee and Emma Thompson’s Sense and Sensibility.
positive · AI labelView post →very offended by the existence of this new Sense and Sensibility. Ang Lee and Emma Thompson made a perfect goddamn movie. we don’t need this
positive · AI labelView post →Comparing the 1995/2026 SENSE AND SENSIBILITY. Movies used to be in color. We have lost something forever by moving to digital filmmaking and lighting. Instead of structured images, everything is an ugly soup. Anything shot before 2000 looks better than something today. I miss *seeing* a movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →This is like when Emma Thompson got the screenwriting Oscar for Sense and Sensibility and she talked about going to Jane Austen's grave and telling her about the box office results for the movie in Uruguay
neutral · AI labelView post →35) Sense and Sensibility. Absolutely delightful to see this on the big screen. (Which always improves even a perfect film.)

neutral · AI labelView post →The book before the film. Always. We took a look at our first edition of Sense and Sensibility from 1811 ahead of the film hitting UK cinemas today📖 Be honest: are you book or film first?
neutral · AI labelView post →Books to Films 📚=🎞️ Sense and Sensibility (1811) by Jane Austen was adapted to film notably in 1995 & 2026. The films ages some of the characters & adds feminist lines for modern audience approval. The book's subplots & lengthy monologues are compressed to fit a 2+ hour film. 📖🌹🖋️ #filmsky #booksky

neutral · AI labelView post →Idk if anyone has pointed this out but, Chris Newman (Producer) among his vast experience has two credits I found interesting: - Love Actually - Sense and Sensibility (1995) A Richard Curtis and a Jane Austen film.
neutral · AI labelView post →Is there any other Alan Rickman period piece where he has long hair and its not Sense and Sensibility, that's the movie I watched during one of the hardest times of my life and I cant watch it during another hard time. I just desperately need Alan Rickman in anything. He's so beautiful.
neutral · AI labelView post →The 2026 version of Sense and Sensibility is a slog, filmed in mouldy darkness. Georgia Oakley's update for Working Title skips the social satire and much of the humour to create worthy but dull versions of 'Stone Cold' Jane Austen's classic characters. 2 out of 5. film-authority.com/2026/09/22/s...

positive · AI labelView post →Alan Rickman (21 February 1946- 14 January 2016) portrayed Colonel Brandon in the 1995 film adaptation of Sense and Sensibility which celebrated its 30th anniversary last year. Ten years since his passing the dignity and sensibility he bought to this role will never be forgotten.

neutral · AI labelView post →My favourite Jane Austen film is Sense and Sensibility, which, if you’ll recall is about a failing cop called Tony Sense who is made to fight crimes with a talking slobbery dog called Sensibility, although, as Austen points out in her novels, he pronounces it Wenwerbiwidy.

neutral · AI labelView post →Polished off Sense and Sensibility and celebrated by watching the 95 film and in some ways I think it improves on the book. The book’s last act has a lot of repetition and focus drift that Thompson’s script honestly down to the actual relevance. And Lee is doing peak Merchant-Ivory like it’s nothing
