I finally finished watching the movie this afternoon. Looking at the comments again, I can see the word "forbearance" and some similar opinions. For such a film, reaching a consensus in a certain sense makes me feel a little uncomfortable. Everyone's opinions are so consistent that they are even sorry for the title of the film "Sense and Sensibility".

Rational and emotional? Is it Marian or Eleanor? Is it Edward or Colonel Boo? Or Willoughby? There should be n similar questions. We might as well assume that n is equal to 10. According to the mathematical arrangement and combination, there should be 1024 kinds of answers. The entanglement of love and reason has come to this again.

  • Elinor Dashwood: Marianne, please try... I... I cannot... I cannot do without you. Oh, please, I... I-I have tried to bear everything else... I will try... Please, dearest, beloved Marianne, do not leave me alone.

  • Marianne: Colonel Brandon.

    [Though trying to slip out, he eases slowly back into the room, almost afraid to speak]

    Marianne: Thank you.

    [a fleeting look of mild gratitude crosses his face from these first sincerely kind words she's ever spoken to him]
