🌹 Two different minds, one shared bond and a special place for kindred spirits.

👋 Hi everyone! There are some stories that seem to become more wonderful with age, and Sense and Sensibility is certainly one of them. So I thought it would be lovely to spend an evening discovering this new adaptation of Jane Austen’s much-loved novel.

It looks like it’s been more than thirty years since Ang Lee’s first big-screen adaptation, and now director Georgia Oakley is attempting to bring Austen’s classic to a whole new generation. And according to Oakley, the intention is to honour Austen while creating something that doesn’t simply feel like another product of 2026.

This new interpretation has already inspired a little debate, which is perhaps part of the fun and certainly worth talking about. Generations will always change over time, and with them, the way we see characters and stories through our own sense and sensibilities.

At the heart of the story are sisters Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, two very different young women navigating love, heartbreak and an uncertain future after a sudden change in their family’s circumstances.

The Meetup: Our evening will begin at 6:30 pm at Joshua’s Tavern, where we can settle in over drinks, catch up and, naturally, talk movies. At 7:30 pm, we’ll make our way over to VUE West End for the screening. I’ll be in seat D6 if you’d like to choose somewhere along the same row.

Once the film finishes at around 10:00 pm, we can get together again to compare impressions and give it our Letterboxd
scores. You’ll find all the ticket information, along with the cinema address and map, further down the page.

So let’s discover what this generation has made of Austen’s story and decide for ourselves where we stand.

I’m really looking forward to seeing you there
~Ty
