Sense and Sensibility

Two sisters with different temperaments—one guided by passion, one by reason—navigate love and social pressures in Regency England.

A story of love and life among the landed English gentry during the Georgian era. Mr. Bennet is a gentleman living in Hertfordshire with his overbearing wife and five daughters, but if he dies their house will be inherited by a distant cousin whom they have never met, so the family's future happiness and security is dependent on the daughters making good marriages.
