My renewed love affair with Kate Winslet prompted me to pull out Ang Lee's Sense and Sensibility. As I started the movie, I anticipated the first appearance of one of my favorite characters - the acerbic, baby-hating Mr. Palmer. And then it occurred to me that Mr. Palmer is played by none other than Hugh Laurie! Pictured here with a slightly blonde Alan Rickman, who plays the endearing Colonel Brandon.

I LOVE this movie! Hmmm. . . I think I might go pull it out and rewatch it myself.
I had been thinking about it for awhile because I was reading about Emma Thompson the other day and realized she's married to Greg Wise - who plays Willoughby. And I had forgotten what a lovely movie it is. Plus I kind of love Colonel Brandon.
Great movie! Love the characters. I watched it again after watching "House" and it was so funny seeing Hugh playing a not so grouchy role.
