Sense and Sensibility is the original soundtrack of the 1995 film of the same name starring Emma Thompson, Alan Rickman, Hugh Grant, Kate Winslet and Tom Wilkinson. The original score was composed by the Scottish composer Patrick Doyle, a friend of Thompson's who had worked with her on many previous films. Director Ang Lee tasked Doyle with creating a gentle score reflecting the emotional suppression of the society featured in the film. Doyle subsequently created a score which he described as "suppressed" with "occasional outbursts of emotion", in keeping with the film's storyline. The score also includes two songs sung by the character of Marianne Dashwood, which Doyle adapted from two poems. His musical score earned the composer his first nominations for the Academy Award for Best Original Score and the BAFTA Award for Best Film Music. He lost both awards to Luis Enríquez Bacalov's score of the Italian film Il Postino. Sony Music Entertainment released the soundtrack to Sense and Sensibility on 12 December 1995. Due to his work in Sense and Sensibility and other films based on novels, Doyle has become best known for his work composing literary adaptations.
