Directed by Ang Lee, and with a screenplay by Emma Thompson based on the novel by Jane Austen, Sense and Sensibility is the story of two sisters; sensible Elinor (played by Thompson) and passionate, wilful Marianne (Kate Winslett).  When their father dies, by law his estate must pass to the eldest son from his first marriage, forcing his current wife and daughters to find somewhere more primitive to live.  With their sudden loss of fortune, the sisters' chances of marriage seem doomed.  Their well-intentioned suitors, played by Alan Rickman, Hugh Grant and Greg Wise are trapped by the strict rules of a society obsessed with financial and social status and the conflicting laws of desire.
