When Emma T is writing at the table she is writing with her left hand. However this is a historical error. At the time of this films setting writing with your left had would be a sign of the devil and beaten out of you. [While the popular belief is that left-handers were possessed by the Devil, there's no indication that EVERYBODY thought this. It's entirely possible, and quite likely, that the Dashwoods felt that Elinor should learn to write with her "smart" hand. The girls are obviously educated, and really no one except family and close servants would ever see her write anything anyway.]

In the scene where Emma Thompson is looking out of the window for Kate Winslet (right before she gets a fever), Hugh Laurie hands her a cup of tea. In the following shot, Thompson's hands are empty and Imelda Staunton hands her a cup of tea too. [This is a device to show the passage of time - the two shots are not intended to follow on directly.]
