A League Of Their Own (1992) and Sense & Sensibility (1995)

In the latest episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, Simon looks at a pair of 90s movies that each faced its own battle. The late Penny Marshall's A League Of Their Own changed director, and found itself looking for a new lead at the last minute. In the case of Sense & Sensibility, it took a decade to bring the Emma Thompson-headlined and adapted version of the film to the screen. And there were significant early cultural challenges. Stories of both are discussed in this episode.   Find Simon on Twitter at @simonbrew, and the podcast can be found at @filmstoriespod. You can find the Film Stories website here. Hosted on Acast.
