LifestyleThe GuardianSense and Sensibility review - Daisy Edgar-Jones leads sober-minded next-gen do-over of Austen romcom
A new film adaptation of Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility stars Daisy Edgar-Jones and Esmé Creed-Miles as the Dashwood sisters, with a cooler and more sober tone than the beloved 1995 version.
With Edgar-Jones and Esmé Creed-Miles as the Dashwood sisters, this fresh take on a beloved classic is not to be confused with Ang Lee’s
A new film adaptation of Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility has arrived, directed by Georgia Oakley with a script by Diana Reid.
Daisy Edgar-Jones and Esmé Creed-Miles play Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, with Caitríona Balfe as their mother and George MacKay as Edward Ferrars.
The reviewer finds it a more downbeat and ruminative take than the 1995 Ang Lee film, with some strange casting choices but an interestingly austere mood.
