Jane Austen never really goes out of fashion, does she? Over two centuries later, the Dashwood sisters are back on screen, and this time Georgia Oakley is in the director’s chair for the film ‘Sense and Sensibility’.
The film is based on Austen’s 1811 novel, with Diana Reid writing the screenplay. Elinor and Marianne Dashwood must leave their Sussex estate with their widowed mother and move to a humble cottage, with a distant relative in the picture. Money is tight. Hearts, as you’d expect, get bruised along the way.
The cast is a real treat. Daisy Edgar-Jones and Esmé Creed-Miles play the sisters, joined by Caitríona Balfe, Frank Dillane, Herbert Nordrum, George MacKay and Fiona Shaw. Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner are among the producers, so the period-drama pedigree is solid. Arnaud Potier handled the cinematography, and Roger Goula composed the music.
Critics have been kind so far. Reviews have been generally positive since the film opened in the UK on 25 September, with the US following on 16 October.
Sense and Sensibility India Release
Indian audiences don’t have long to wait. Sense and Sensibility reaches theatres here on 30 October, which is this Friday. Consider it your weekend plan sorted.
Now, the question you probably clicked for. Is it streaming anywhere? Not yet. For now the film is listed only for a theatrical run, and no OTT platform or digital release date has been officially announced.
