Sense and Sensibility
Acceptable with guidance. Age: 12+. A Catholic review of this movie for parents.
Our review
The story honors restraint, loyalty and honest love over money and show, and its ending rewards patience. The film is described as grittier and darker than past versions. The reservation is that marriage is framed by money and class, faith is absent, and brief partial nudity is reported but not confirmed.
For parents
Best for ages 12 and up, a provisional call. Rated PG; Lumen sets the age at 12+. Ask: why did Elinor hide her feelings, and when is that wise or not? Why did Willoughby's charm mislead Marianne? Preview for the reported brief bathing nudity.
