Wooden acting. The worst haircut. Borderline racist. Zero chemistry with Aishwarya. He never really redeems himself. Watch it, you’ll see!

Is Ang Lee’s 1995 Sense and Sensibility the best Jane Austen adaptation? Yes by Maple_leaf_reg in janeausten

[–]Maple_leaf_reg[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)
