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.

In a previous post, Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton played football and drank beer on Cambridgeshire County Day. This is reported by the publication People. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended the first-ever Cambridgeshire County Day. Kate Middleton was dressed in a light chiffon dress and high wedge shoes, but inappropriate clothing did not stop the Duchess from offering to play football. Before kicking the ball, the Duchess told the audience that she would try hard, but she was not sure of success due to shoes being uncomfortable for playing football. After the hit, Kate shook hands with the boy who played before her and said, "You did better than me." Prince William supported his wife and also tried his hand at football, despite the fact that he was dressed in a classic suit and suede shoes. Then the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge sipped cold beer and tasted chocolate, as well as chatted with guests and organizers of the event.
