Modern twists on classic stories

The publication suggests recent films combine post-punk soundtracks with cross-dressing and color-blind casting. These elements allow viewers to view history through a new lens. The list includes titles that feel surprisingly modern despite their historical settings.

Cast comparisons for the new film

Readers are urged to compare the latest retelling with Ang Lee's 1995 adaptation starring Kate Winslet. Edgar-Jones and George MacKay take centre stage in the new version while Esmé Creed-Miles plays Marianne Dashwood. The supporting cast features Harriet Walter as Fanny Dashwood and Hugh Laurie as Mr Palmer.
