Sense and Sensibility review – blue-chip cast decorates Emma Thompson’s pleasurable Austen adaptation

Thirty years later, this richly enjoyable film is back with its quality lineup including Kate Winslet and Hugh Grant alongside Thompson herself Emma Thompson won a screenplay Oscar for this buoyant, vibrant, richly enjoyable adaptation of Jane Austen’s novel. Released in 1995, it was directed by Ang Lee and is a movie with the pleasures of a golden age studio picture of the kind made by William Wyler. It was the second half of Thompson’s Oscar double – she won her first one in 1993 for acting in Howards End – and she is still the only person in Academy Award history to win for acting and writing. With marvellous lightness and gaiety, Thompson found a response to Austen’s comic register, expertly marrying it up to the romance, and 1995 now looks like the golden age of Austen adaptation, having also seen the Colin Firth/Jennifer Ehle Pride and Prejudice on television and Amy Heckerling’s Emma-homage Clueless at the movies.

Kate Moss denies Amber Heard’s allegations of abuse by Johnny Depp

'Johnny never hit me': Kate Moss denies Amber Heard's allegations of abuse by Depp. Here is another ex-lover of Depp who denied stories about his cruel temper.

As a result, the testimony of Kate Moss turned into another proof of Depp's good heart and honest intentions. As it turned out, at that very moment, Kate was very hurt, and Johnny immediately rushed to her aid. Under oath, Model Kate Moss made it clear that the former lover did not let her down the stairs and, even more so, did not physically abuse the star. The bright couple met from 1994 to 1998, and the reason for the breakup was rather the dismissive attitude of Depp himself; he himself told the press about his stupid mistake. At that moment, the brightest actor in Hollywood put his career at the forefront, and years later, he realized that he shouldn't have been so worried about the attention of the press to his person. Returning home, Johnny had to leave problems at the door, but only the experience he had lived through helped him draw the right conclusions about what had happened. Kate, who is notoriously tight-lipped about her personal life, did share her take on their relationship in 2012, recalling that she "spent years "crying for Jhonny after the breakup.
