Special Edition of S&S95 for Spain
February 24, 2009
Alert Janeite Carmen let us know that a two-disc Special Edition of Sense and Sensibility 1995 (Region 2) will be available in Spain on March 17. According to Carmen, the bonus features include:
Disc 1: film, comments by E. Thompson & L. Duncan. Comments by Ang Lee and producer J. Schamus.
Disc 2: Eliminated scenes: Elinor & Edward’s kiss, Mrs Dashwood consoles Elinor. New contents for this edition: adapting Austen (adaptations of her novels), Sense of a character (choosing the cast), A very Quiet Man (Ang Lee interview), Locating the world of Sense and Sensibility (locations), Elegance and simplicity (costumes).
Carmen asks if there is something similar for the UK/US–we don’t think so; anyone?

Well, there is this link for amazon.com:
Amazon.com: Sense and Sensibility (Special Edition) Gift Set (Amazon.com Exclusive): Emma Thompson, Kate Winslet, James Fleet, Tom Wilkinson, Harriet Walter, Ang Lee: Movies & TV
It is the dvd (no new features apparently), a diary with Jane Austen quotes, and a “Sense and Sensibility” inscribed pen according to the link. It comes out March 17 in the U.S.
I wouldn’t mind buying another copy of S&S if it gets new bonus features on it. Considering that Ang Lee and Kate Winslet both now have Academy Awards, that alone should warrant a new anniversary edition with more special features for the dvd.
Thanks Wild Roses!
I think it won’t be the same. Anyway a special edition with 2 discs (instead of 1, which I own) really tempts me
. We’ll see next 17th March.
I also find this really tempting. I’d love to see those special features. I wonder if it will be available in Australia?
