The director’s debut of Martin Scorcese’s second cousin Mitzi Calabrese, a new adaptation of that beloved classic by Jane Austen-Healy, Sense and Teasability….

Of course this leads to all sorts of machinations and manipulations, as you can see by the following scenes.

The eldest of the Dashboard sisters, Miriam, finds it easier to persuade future husband Phillipe le Fille by appealing to his sense of hygiene.

On the other hand, Donald de Moreorles, Claire’s betrothed, needs no persuasion at all.

Marie isn’t very forceful, but then James du Rose isn’t very resistant either.

Margaret has discovered that Dennis Delicat has a one track…. mind….

Conversely, Stella resorts to a bit of teasing and a great deal of subterfuge for fiancé Roger Madschen.

Meanwhile, Miriam continues to slowly work on eroding Philippe’s resistance.

To the point where she has him pretty much exactly where she wants him.

Giancarlo Ragazza is so eager to please Louisa that he’s willing to do most anything.

And of course the rewards at the end of the day make up for any teasing on all of their parts. It’s all in good fun, and oh so much more.
