I agree with almost your entire review. I loved this version, and I felt it captured more of the book, and I think, more of the feelings that went on. I disagree with you on the point of Dominic Cooper. I think that his charisma was perfect for the part, although I must say I liked Greg Wise better. I think that DC’s appeal is in his persuasion, not his “good looks.” Like Wickham, except different…lol. Great review!

Sorry to hear that Willoughby didn’t float your boat. I absolutely love Greg Wise in the Emma Thompson S&S and nobody quite compairs!!

I also appreciated this BBC adaptation of Sense and Sensibility and … guess what? … I neither liked Dominic Cooper as Willoughby since 1995, Greg Wise, was far more gorgeous. I have seen DC in THE DUCHESS and HISTORY BOYS and he was very good but he didn’t convince me as Willoughby. Good review. Cheers!

I’m so glad you loved this version as well! It was beautiful and I completely agree with you on Willoughby; he just didn’t do it for me! Even though his acting was superb! Thanks for your review!
