Sense and Sensibility

CriticsCritics: 91
AudienceAudience: 7.8

After a sudden loss of fortune, a widowed mother and her three daughters must leave their home and adjust to a far more modest life. As two sisters pursue romance in a society governed by money and status, their contrasting temperaments are tested by love, disappointment, and family expectations.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you appreciate witty period romances, emotional family stories, and films like Pride & Prejudice or Persuasion; Not for you if slow pacing and intricate courtship plots feel tedious.
