What does it take to bring one of Jane Austen's most beloved love stories to the big screen? This week on Off The Shelf, Morgann travels to the UK to sit down with Daisy Edgar-Jones, George MacKay, and director Georgia Oakley to chat about their new adaptation of Sense and Sensibility. Daisy and George share how they prepared to play Elinor Dashwood and Edward Ferrars and the memorable dance rehearsals on set. Then, director Georgia Oakley takes us behind the scenes of reimagining Jane Austen's classic for a new generation and what it was like working with a large number of animals on set.
