A charming, witty, and deeply relatable story of love and sisterhood, Sense and Sensibility is an irresistible new take on Jane Austen's classic novel. Directed by Georgia Oakley (Blue Jean), the film stars Daisy Edgar-Jones, Esmé Creed-Miles, Caitríona Balfe, George MacKay, and Fiona Shaw.
In Georgian-era England, the women of the Dashwood family are transplanted from their grand home to a modest country cottage after their inheritance is lost.
The family's two daughters – the cautious, conscientious Elinor (Daisy Edgar-Jones) and the fiery, headstrong Marianne (Esmé Creed-Miles) – each try to find their place in the world, as the attention of various suitors comes their way.
