the hopelessness he feels
Can you not feel his despair?Sense and Sensibility · 1995 — 第 5 / 27 章 · 4'28" · C1
Marianne argues that love must be passion — 'To love is to burn, to be on fire' — while Elinor refuses to say more than that she esteems Edward. The scene sets sister against sister: one wants feeling declared, the other keeps it hidden, and both are talking about the same man.
Marianne reads a poem aloud and insists that love must be passionate, while her mother and Elinor are more measured. A letter from Sir John Middleton offers them Barton Cottage, but their mother delays the move, believing Edward and Elinor have formed an attachment. Asked whether she loves Edward, Elinor will only say she thinks highly of and esteems him.

but further than that you must not believe.The chapter is the film's argument about feeling staged as a family quarrel. Marianne's case is that love without fire is not love at all: 'Can the soul really be satisfied with such polite affections?' Elinor's answer is not a denial of feeling but a refusal to perform it — she says she esteems and likes Edward, never that she loves him, and Marianne hears the difference as a betrayal. What makes the scene work is that neither sister is simply wrong. Marianne's demand for passion is genuine, and Elinor's restraint is a way of protecting both herself and the man she cares for, since there is, as she insists, 'no understanding' between them. The teasing ends in real friction, because the words each sister uses about love carry a different weight, and neither will trade hers for the other's.

Is love a fancy or a feeling?The poem's question, and the chapter's, which Marianne keeps asking and Elinor keeps refusing to answer outright.
Because Elinor speaks of him so calmly, saying only that she esteems and likes him. Marianne believes real love must be declared with passion, not described politely.
An offer from Sir John Middleton of a home at Barton Cottage, at a rent even Elinor would approve of. Their mother delays accepting it.
She believes Edward and Elinor have formed an attachment and thinks it would be cruel to take Elinor away so soon, especially so far as Devonshire.
She says she thinks very highly of him, esteems him, and likes him, but insists there is no understanding between them and refuses to use the word love.
It means Marianne's ideals are going too far. Her mother uses it to warn that demanding passion as proof of love is extreme.
