Sense and Sensibility (film)/YMMV
These things about Sense and Sensibility (film) are subjective - not everyone will agree with all of them.
- Crowning Moment of Awesome: Emma Thompson's Best Adapted Screenplay win makes her the only person to have won Academy Awards for both writing and acting. (She got Best Actress for Howard's End.)
- Crowning Music of Awesome: Patrick Doyle's soundtrack, especially the main theme, which is reprised multiple times and comes to a spectacular crescendo in the wedding scene.
- Hey, It's That Guy!:
- Dr. House is the long-suffering husband of Dolores Umbridge?!
- And Rose De Witt Bukater is the sister to Nanny McPhee? Or was she Professor Sybil Trelawney? Ah no, she's Beatrice!
- Marianne hooks up with Severus Snape, while her sister falls for Charles from Four Weddings and a Funeral.
- Their mother is Madam Pomfrey, and the nice old lady who takes them to London is the (original) Fat Lady from Gryffindor Tower, who lives with Cornelius Fudge. The Harry Potter movie sets were practically a reunion party for the cast of this film.
- Their bitchy sister-in-law is Queen Adelaide. Or Harriet Vane. And their half-brother is Hugo Horton.
- Hilarious in Hindsight:
- Watch Imelda Staunton (Mrs. Palmer) interacting with Emma Thompson in this film, then follow it by watching their characters interact in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
- Hugh Grant and Emma Thompson play siblings in Love Actually. Emma Thompson is also married to Alan Rickman in the same movie.
- Emma Thompson is married in Real Life to Greg Wise, who plays Willoughby.
- Hugh Laurie playing sarcastic Mr. Palmer years before House. And stealing the show.
