00:00If I had to choose my favorite Jane Austen adaptation,
00:02it's definitely Emma Thompson's take on Sense and Sensibility with Ang Lee directing.

00:12and it just hasn't really been topped.
00:15When you watch Sense and Sensibility, you just sort of watch all this English propriety
00:19and this way of being in the world.

00:26because if you do, then you're outcast.
00:29The moment that I think is the most memorable and relevant
00:31is where Edward confesses that he's available to Eleanor,
00:35and Eleanor breaks down and cries.
00:37I'm not married.
00:40No.
00:46She starts crying, and then I start crying, and I can't get over it.
00:50Like, every single time, I'm like, are they going to have their happy ending or not?
