My brother hasn't seen this particular version, but he liked the "brown-hair" one. =) I'm sure he'd like this one too.<br /><br />Yay for guys who recognize a good story. ;-)Melodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05676306236172688321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6332557059549813243.post-91063314777613315882010-09-07T16:55:46.248-07:002010-09-07T16:55:46.248-07:00Miss Elinor Dashwood,
I enjoyed your review. I'...Miss Elinor Dashwood,<br />I enjoyed your review. I've only seen the first two parts and am eagerly awaiting our chance to see the next two, which hopefully will be within the week. Even where the characters were different in ways from what I had expected or hoped for, I found it easy to like Emma, Mr.Knightley, and all the rest! I found out that the actor portraying Mr.Knightley played Edmund in Mansfield Park, and I was satisfied with that. Then, I found out Mr.Elton was played by the actor who played Edmund in a more recent version. Now I really like Mansfield Park, book and movies, and I was absolutely horrified! But what was worse was that Mr. Elton actually did a great job!:)I totally agree about the "brother and sister, no indeed" line. It's one of my favorite parts.I hope you're able to understand my rambling. Sometimes one can't get hardly a word out of me, and other times, everything just blurts out at once!<br />Your sister in Christ,<br />Liz DarcyRidge Auto Saleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02720496950617937619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6332557059549813243.post-2510564734998079472010-06-09T12:55:23.203-07:002010-06-09T12:55:23.203-07:00I can't wait to get hold of it, reading that i...I can't wait to get hold of it, reading that it's so good and, particularly, that it focuses on the development of Emma's character. I'm glad for my sister, who really likes the book and, from what I could gather, particularly that part of it. I hope she'll like it!Hana - Marmotahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03532515160608083460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6332557059549813243.post-39694151571909495162010-04-19T07:53:39.774-07:002010-04-19T07:53:39.774-07:00Great review!

It is the quintessential adaptation of Miss Austen's novel!<br /><br />Like you said there are some "modernizations" given especially to Emma herself but the changes aren't really that noticeable. It is an exquisite film in every way!<br />I'm so glad someone else adores it as much as I do! :)<br /><br />God Bless,<br />Miss LaurieMiss Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00973247921599001493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6332557059549813243.post-34103781950182060832010-04-16T08:26:57.775-07:002010-04-16T08:26:57.775-07:00I hate it.

A very good review!
I too...Very well done indeed! A very good review! <br /><br />I too really like this version. I do agree that this is the best Mr. Knightly but I recently watched the other two versions of Emma with my sisters, and I could find all sorts of things in them that I liked too. I could probably do a detailed post about which movie I think portrays each character the best! That said, I haven't read the book yet - I did scan bits but haven't read it like I want - so I may be in a bad position to judge. :p<br /><br />I love the modesty in this film, compared to many other regency films too - I'm thinking about sometime, remaking some of the dresses. :)<br /><br />To the KING be all the glory!<br />Rebekah<br /><br />BLOG: http://www.donotgrowweary.com/blog<br /><br />"Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth." 2 Timothy 2:15Rebekahhttp://www.donotgrowweary.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6332557059549813243.post-45881218280230976542010-04-15T19:48:40.150-07:002010-04-15T19:48:40.150-07:00Amy & I just watched the first disc earlier th...Amy & I just watched the first disc earlier this week.

I have read some reviews about it, and from the sound of it a lot of people did not like it, but I think it probably my favorite (though I have never seen any of the other versions:). <br />I love how you also included a Christian perspective in your review too. Wonderful!<br />And I also really like your blog.
