Capítulo 25 de 27 · 2'05"
At Barton, the party gossips about Willoughby's marriage to Miss Grey, and Mrs. Jennings declares she has never disliked anyone so much. Marianne, tired of it all, wants a walk; Elinor warns of rain, and Marianne answers, "It will not rain." Guests arrive and the house turns to tea and small talk.
Mrs. Jennings Rails Against Willoughby
Marianne Goes Out Before the Rain
At Barton, Mrs. Jennings treats Lucy and Edward's new parish as wonderful news and says she has never disliked anyone as much as Willoughby. Marianne, restless, wants to walk alone; Elinor warns that it will rain, but Marianne insists it will not. Meanwhile Mrs. Bunting and her party arrive from a hard journey, and the house settles into tea and talk.
The scene is the calm before the storm — literally. Everyone is talking about marriage, and the talk is all about other people: Lucy and Edward's luck, Willoughby's wedding to Miss Grey, a baby, a long journey, the tea. Mrs. Jennings supplies the judgment — 'Insufferable man!' — while Marianne supplies the warning the others ignore. Her wish to walk alone and her flat reply, 'It will not rain,' are the film's quiet signal that she is heading straight into the danger everyone else has already moved past. The social comedy and the coming catastrophe sit side by side, which is exactly the film's method.
