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.

The ugliest of the Kardashian sisters?: On Khloe Kardashian’s birthday, together with a psychologist

Despite the fact that Khloe Kardashian has achieved some success both as an actress and as an entrepreneur, she still loses to her sisters in popularity.

All this shows that the topic of one's own body is still quite acute for a celebrity, despite the weight shed. This is probably why the reality star is unable to completely avoid body-shaming. Another interesting episode from the biography when her older sisters graduated from school, Chloe also stopped visiting her, transferring to homeschooling. Of course, the reasons for this may be different, but the fact remains that she did not study without relatives. Although, by the way, she graduated from high school with honors. It is unlikely that the divorce of her parents passed without a trace for the girl; she was then only five years old. And if before that she was just the youngest of the sisters, then after the new marriage, her mother was exactly in the middle of a series of sisters: 2 older sisters and two younger siblings. Khloe has become a kind of link between the two halves - not the easiest position in the family.
