Rating: 5/5 --
The decision to hire Taiwan's Ang Lee to direct this adaptation of Jane Austen's first novel was truly inspired.

Radio Times
Through Emma Thompson's cogent screenplay and her deeply wrought performance as the more restrained sister, Elinor Dashwood, the film makes eloquent good sense.

Hartford Courant
Rating: 8/10 --
The film's true strength is how it deals primarily in emotional revelations that dip and flow with such surety that an eidetic memory of every twist and turn isn't necessary.

The Retro Set
I can't say I remembered this 1995 feature too clearly a couple of days later; but I certainly had a good time as I watched it.

This exquisite endeavor remains the finest Jane Austen adaptation to date.

Creative Loafing
Elinor, in other words, is a performance, but it is a performance that issues intimately from Thompson's real character, as all good performances do.

Independent (UK)
Thompson and Winslet give fine performances ably supported by the rest of the ensemble.

Product Description:
Fans of Jane Austen have come to trust the BBC and Masterpiece for their excellent adaptations of the author's classic work, and this version of SENSE & SENSIBILITY is no exception. PRIDE AND PREJUDICE screenwriter Andrew Davies provides the script for this miniseries about the Dashwood sisters and their quests for marriage. Eldest sister Elinor tries to be the practical one as she thinks of someone who can't be hers, while her younger sister Marianne dives headlong into passion without considering the consequences. This adaptation stars David Morrissey (STATE OF PLAY), Janet McTeer (TUMBLEWEEDS), and Dominic Cooper (STARTER FOR TEN).
