It's as good as you hope it is and then some because it's Sense & Sensibility and Emma Thompson

Sheer delight, what else is there to say!!! Gemma Jones on Divine Brown, some deleted scenes, reflections on acting as a writer and vice versa, Kia the most utterly charming thing.

I don't read much non-fiction but I really enjoyed this book. I love the Jane Austen novel, 'Sense and Sensibility' and really enjoyed the Ang Lee film of the novel. This book is a great accompaniment to the novel and film. It consists of the Screenplay, cast photos and a diary written by screenwriter and actor Emma Thompson, made during the creation of the film. A real gem.

Great read! the script I'll give another go while watching the film and the diary shows off Emma Thompson's famous wit and gives us a glimpse of what it is actually like to make a movie. Also that actors are humams with bad backs and PMS.
Would recommend!!!
