After going on a Jane Austen binge a few years ago I read everything she had published I fell in love with her novels and have always liked the movies made from her books. This movie is a great example. It arrived in great condition and on time.

Films of this genre are not usually of interest to me. I first found this film as a VHS tape super cheap at a yard sale. Because several of the actors involved were actors I'd enjoyed in other movies, I thought I'd pick it up to check out, not expecting I'd enjoy it all that much. To my surprise, this version of Sense & Sensibility was very nicely done. All the characters were well developed & well acted, and the story was told without a hint of melodrama- good storytelling with solid performances. I enjoyed it enough that I decided I'd add it to my dvd movie collection.

Sadly, I missed the second half of the recent (and most wonderful) PBS adaptation of this timeless classic. I was desperate to know how the story ends because I have never read the novel. I turned to my trusted Ebay and was not disappointed. I found and purchased this DVD (a SUPER DEAL) after finding it not available at the video store. The cast and acting is superb! The scenery made me homesick for the UK where I lived and worked more than 17 years. Emma Thompson's script was perfect in detail, costume and story telling. I am sorry I never read Austin because, as with Shakespeare, it is amazing how humans evolve in the world of technology and in some social ways (for good or ill). However, in other important human ways nothing changes thrugh the ages, such as our deep seated human emotions of love, longing and loss! This is a superb movie, have watched it twice already to take in the details again the second time around. It is a true shame to refer to it as a "Chick Flick" when the observations of love, longing and loss are universal between men and women and so timeless too. This is an extremely literate and entertaining exploration of human emotion. Enjoy!Read full review
