Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #494: Common Sense and Sensibility

In this episode, we dive into the 1995 film adaptation of Sense and Sensibility, directed by Ang Lee and written by (and starring!) Emma Thompson. We explore how this beloved version brings Jane Austen’s classic novel to life, from its lush cinematography and sharp wit to standout performances by Kate Winslet, Alan Rickman, and Hugh Grant. Join us as we discuss romance, restraint, and the enduring appeal of Austen’s work. Plus some fandom news and your feedback!
