Mathew BayntonGUEST
and
Emily DeanHOST
Emma Thompson have worked with him.
Emily DeanHOST
He's this really iconic figure.
Emily DeanHOST
So what sort of, because people, and I've heard, I remember seeing you interviewed by the Oxford Union, and I love a student, but I feel like, oh, you were a real clown.
David CampbellHOST
So I don't have one.
David CampbellHOST
I'm like, just read Emma Thompson's Oscar speech.
David CampbellHOST
And now I remember why.
David CampbellHOST
Because it's very charming and very funny.
8 MINS LATER
David CampbellHOST
This is a huge movie at the time.
David CampbellHOST
There was a lot of hype around this.
David CampbellHOST
I was an Emma Thompson fan.
David CampbellHOST
I don't think any of us can really truly say we're Ang Lee fans up until this point, really, unless you watch a lot of wedding banquet yeah you know unless you watch those sort of movies um so i wasn't across that but certainly you know with hugh emma alan rickman i was like okay let's go to the cinema and see this this was very much in the zeitgeist in 1995
DeniseHOST
Next, that's a wrap.
DeniseHOST
Ted Lasso Emmy winner Hannah Waddingham excitedly embraced Oscar winner Emma Thompson at the Albies in London on October 9th.
DeniseHOST
You'll understand this later, Thompson told photographers.
DeniseHOST
Next, All Vic Glitters.
Chris FeilHOST
Your Globe comedy lineup is a real journey into this head Oscar bus territory.
Chris FeilHOST
Ana de Armas in Knives Out, Awkwafina in The Farewell, Cate Blanchett in Where'd You Go Bernadette, Beanie Feldseated, Booksmart, and Emma Thompson in Late Night.
Joe ReidHOST
I thought, yeah, it's Late Night because Leo Grand was a COVID movie.
Joe ReidHOST
Uh-huh.
Melissa NathooHOST
That's the one.
Melissa NathooHOST
And Emma Thompson.
Melissa NathooHOST
So that was also one of his novels.
Jonny NelsonHOST
So very sort of different.
LaurencePANELIST

LucyHOST
Emma Thompson.
LucyHOST
She's not dead.
LucyHOST
She's alive.
LucyHOST
She's well alive.
LaurencePANELIST
Emma Thompson's alive.
LucyHOST
Emma Thompson's cool.
Dave MartinsonHOST
Like most Austen works, there's been numerous adaptations, but of course, most famously is the 1995 Sense and Sensibility from Ang Lee.
Dave MartinsonHOST
Of course, starring Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet, numerous Oscar nominations, including Best Picture.
Dave MartinsonHOST
Really a movie that I think has stood the test of time and is one of the most beloved movies of the 90s.
Dave MartinsonHOST
It's really not surprising that we got another Sense and Sensibility movie and especially one at this quality level from Focus Features.
Dave MartinsonHOST
Casting Daisy Edgar Jones as Eleanor Dashwood makes a lot of sense.
Dave MartinsonHOST
This is the type of role I think a lot of people would expect from Daisy Edgar Jones ever since she's continued to stack good project after good project following the normal people breakout.
Dave MartinsonHOST
Does she really hold a candle to Emma Thompson and all of her unique Charms, no, but I do feel like she's giving a bit of a different performance.
Dave MartinsonHOST
She comes across as a little bit younger.
JeffHOST
I mean, I think that would be pretty great.
JeffHOST
I mean, could you imagine Jackson Lamb and Zoe Boehm together? You know, I mean, the two characters, I mean, Emma Thompson and Gary Oldman.
JeffHOST
I mean, who wouldn't want to see that? Yeah,
Matthew BradfordGUEST
that would be that would be rewarding.
JoshHOST
Yeah.
JoshHOST
This brings us to 1995 and producer Lindsay Duran wanted to do an adaptation of Sense and Sensibility and she had come across some of Emma Thompson's sketches and so she approached Emma Thompson to write it and so this would be Emma Thompson's first screenplay.
JoshHOST
And so some producers and studios were a bit wary of that.
JoshHOST
Lindsay Rouran ended up shopping it around to other studios rather than the one she usually would work with just because they weren't really wanting to bet on a first time screenwriter.
JoshHOST
But I really do feel like Emma Thompson's like such an important part in just like modern period piece films.
JoshHOST
So many of them emulate what she did here.
JoshHOST
Even like Pride and Prejudice, I feel has a lot of stuff that is taken from this script and
TennilleGUEST
I can see little scenes, little moments.
Martin HarriesHOST
Yeah, yeah, definitely.
Martin HarriesHOST
How does this compare to the Ang Lee film then with Emma Thompson?
EllieGUEST
I don't want to say I prefer this version because I have such a love for the Emma Thompson, Kate Winslet, Hugh Grant, Alan Rickman gorgeousness.
EllieGUEST
But I don't know, I feel more emotion from this one.
EllieGUEST
Oh, okay.
