Sense and Sensibility movie review

The movie Sense and Sensiblity directed by Ang Lee and based on the book of the same name by Jane Austen follows the struggles of three sisters Elinor, Maryanne, and Margaret Dashwood and their mom after the death of their dad and husband.

The girls' half brother inherits their house, and quickly kicks them out with the encouragement of his wife. While they're preparing to move out to another house, they meet Edward Faris, the brother of their sister-in-law. Elinor and Mr. Faris quickly form an attachment, but his sister and the rest of her family are against the relationship going any further since the Faris family wants Edward to marry into money. Later, the family meets kind-hearted Captain Brandon who develops feelings for Maryanne, but what will happen when she falls for another guy much richer? What will happen to these sisters? And what will happen when Maryanne comes down with a high fever when she and Elinor are away from home? The movie was first released in 1999.
