Patrick Doyle began his career in film music writing scores for Kenneth Branagh`s films - but he didn`t receive his first Oscar nomination until he wrote this one for Branagh`s then-wife, Emma Thompson. (www.allmusic.com) Thompson`s adaptation of Jane Austen`s classic was made into a film by Ang Lee in 1995. Made destitute by their father`s death, the Dashwood sisters try their luck finding love. It`s not just society but they themselves who stand in the way. Typical for Austen, SENSE AND SENSIBILITY is a work of social criticism disguised as romantic comedy. With a star-studded cast, Lee, Thompson, Doyle and Austen have created a masterpiece of feel-good cinema.
