理性與感性

         圍繞在兩姊妹以理性和感性處理情感時的矛盾與掙扎。主角艾琳諾與瑪麗安姐妹情深，但兩人對感情的態度卻大相逕庭：姐姐艾琳諾個性冷靜理智，面對感情保守而壓抑；妹妹瑪麗安則是熱情感性，不顧一切的追隨愛情。雖然兩姐妹的個性如此不同，在感情路上卻同樣跌跌撞撞。
　　
　　艾琳諾愛上一位靦腆的紳士愛德華，兩人互相傾慕，卻因為愛德華背負著一宗錯誤的婚約受到阻礙，他們只能克制愛意，一邊進行猜心的遊戲；妹妹瑪麗安瘋狂愛上一名英雄救美的瀟灑青年魏樂比，但他卻辜負少女一片癡情，選擇財富，害得瑪麗安因鬱成疾。儘管一波三折，這對姊妹終究靠著良善的本質覓得良緣。

Marianne Dashwood wears her heart on her sleeve, and when she falls in love with the dashing but unsuitable John Willoughby she ignores her sister Elinor's warning that her impulsive behaviour leaves her open to gossip and innuendo. Meanwhile Elinor, always sensitive to social convention, is struggling to conceal her own romantic disappointment, even from those closest to her. Through their parallel experience of love - and its threatened loss - the sisters learn that sense must mix with sensibility if they are to find personal happiness in a society where status and money govern the rules of love.
