I love this version and i think the actors fit perfectly- i'm in love with jeremy northam,he's exactly like i've pictured him to be :D Although,at first i thought that gwyneth wasn't the right choice to play emma,but now i see i was wrong ^^
@LadeyYuna This is the BEST version of Emma with 1 exception: Gwyneth. If I could take her off the screen and put Kate Beckinsale, this film would be ABSOLUTELY PERFECT :)
aww itsjust like my stepdad he rode nonstop 9like not even a bathroom break) from georgia to new orleans 2 propose to my mom during mardi gras so sweet!
"..i rode through the rain.. id ride through worse than that, if i could just hear your voice telling me that i might at least have some chance to win you.." =) <3 that line
This is my favourite Emma proposal scene. Even better than the one from 2006. This Mr. Knightley is perfect for his character. This one is absolutely best.
I love Gwyneth Paltrow! Always have! I could care less if she is the best Emma because she is definitely one great actress and for me worth watching in anything!
Loved the part when Emma was asking God for Mr. Knightley to stay single forever if she can't have him. She's s selfish. But that's what makes her so adorable. :)
I think she makes a very good emma. Very ladylike and cultured which is appropriate to her character. I loved the rapport between Johnny Lee Miller and Romola Garai in the recent version but Gywenth Paltrow has way more natural elegence. Romola played the role very well but she still had that country thing happening that just didn't gell with the book. I like both actresses for different reasons. But I think Gywenth is closer to the character as written.
@elenore88 Although I hate some of the hairstyles they gave her. The ones on top of her head didn't seem very flattering. When you have something like Gywenth Paltrow to work with you make the most of it. (And they dressed Ramola really badly. Could have done so much better there.) Details like that really make a difference to the overall presentation and the way an audience responds to the film.
"Maybe it is our imperfections that make us so perfect for one another."
Yes. This is exactly what a real and good relationship consists of. I absolutely love this. People constantly look for perfection in their future significant other, when they need to realize that it's their flaws that make that person so agreeable, strange as it may seem.
"I rode through the rain...and I'd...I'd ride through worse than that if I could just hear your voice telling me, that I might at least have some chance to win you"
@SuprSingr Sorry you do not like who they chose to play Emma but she is both talented, pretty,has an amazing accent even though she is not British and she is GWYNETH PALTROW who played in IRON MAN(hint hint!)!I guess she was talented enough to play in Seven, and win an Oscar for SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE...You were saying?She is way better than the lady who plays in the 2009 version...
@ics002 I don't care who the actress is, what other movies she's been in, or what awards she's won. I still don't think she suits the role of Emma. I'm sorry I have an opinion? But if you're referring to the Emma in the 2009 BBC series, then I have to agree that this actress does suit the role a bit better.
Awwww, poor Mr. Knightley. They did a pretty good job with the garden scene, though I still very much prefer the original in the book. Jane Austen seemed to have a habit of blathering and drawing things out longer than they needed, so I can see why they cut some stuff out, but the garden scene was brilliant in the book. This one just... isn't as perfect. But still, pretty good. I think they captured the basic point of the scene well enough. Though in the book Mr. K was more sad than frustrated.
In the 2009 version, Mr. Knightely says "You have borne it as no other 'woman' would have." I like the fact that he says "as 'no one' could have borne it" in this version :)
This remark may be insignificant to u all, but it is to me ^_^
Such characters as Mr. Knightley (and , if we consider it, even Mr. Darcy) do not exist in real life. Never existed, and never will be present. Too perfect to be true. Only such a genius talent as of Jane Austens' could have created them.... eternally exciting interest, and never ceasing to be considered perfect in all senses of the word.
@TheRussianalien I disagree completely. Especially in the case of Mr. Knightly, who is remarkably similar to a real person. He is not too perfect to be true, he is the kind and understanding friend. There are tons of wonderful men in the world and while they won't be carbon copies of literary characters, they can hold many or most of the same personality traits.
@EbonyHood in the novel Emma is 21, therefore Mr. Knightley ought to be 37. In real life Gwyneth Paltrow was 24 at the time, and Jeremy Northam is 35. I dare say the difference is not that big, is it?
I love this version of Emma the best but I wish they would have left in the part where Mr Knightley says: "..his aunt was in the way, his aunt dies, etc..." I still remember Mark Strong's complaint about that b/c he was so emphatic about it (that and when he complained that Frank had to ride all the way to London for a haircut....lol)
@whatmakesgoodbetter Definitely. I couldn't agree more ;) and I've only seen Jeremy Northam in 1 other film, which is virtually the complete opposite of a Jane Austen adaptation and yet he does it brilliantly.
@whatmakesgoodbetter Have you seen him in The Tudors? I saw it on DVD. He plays a very serious man, but behind the scene he's a big goofball! He's joking around, making funny faces, pulling pranks at people during filming. It made me like him even more.
I've had it of the whole dialogue business. Just because the screenplay doesn't have every exact word or line from the original novel....... that isn't a reason to dislike the newest BBC adaptation. Sheesh.
I saw two other versions, I read the book years before I saw this movie. I think actors match really well, they do a fantastic job playing the role. And the way they show landscapes is fantastic, so dreamy. I loved this movie and especially this part. It's too bad it doesn't happen often in real life, everyone found their perfect match. Usually if you read book first then movie looks bad, this one was great ! at least to my opinion.

What was wrong with Jane Austen's original proposal that they felt the need to change the dialogue? I mean, Jeremy Northam is dreamy as per usual, but still- what happened to, say, the line,"If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more"?
@UnoriginalJess92 ... I know what you mean.. .I missed that crucial line too.... When Johnny Lee Miler says it in the 2009 version I nearly melted in my seat.. *swoons and sighs*... I like this version but I LOVE the 2009 one with JLM and Romola Garai... Beautiful shot, acted and just lovely to watch... :0)x
@UnoriginalJess92 2009 version is on here too... Lovely stuff, it means you can watch 3 full version of EMMA... *sighs and swoons and begins to fan frantically again* :0)x
awww! that love scene is sooo cute! hes so mad cuz he loves her, but he doesnt know she wont listen to him cuz she thinks he loves hariett but he loves her!
Oh irony is cruel. I started watching this movie in the hopes that I could escape the pathetic part of my love life, only to find the exact same situation in here!
Oh wrong, so wrong, this Emma! She has no depth whatsoever, comes across as totally stupid and unevolved...she is supposed to be suffering inside! I cringe at the sight of it. And Mr. Knightley so self-conscious at the beginning? Never! This just won't do. Jeremy Northam acts splendidly, then it is all lost in the next frame with GP's void impression...oh my....imperfections, indeed!
@akkasvids ... I know what you mean, but I must say that in my opinion 2009 just edges it... But I love all the Emma's.. and Mr Knightleys as well... :0)x
Dear Lord, if he cannot share a life with me, is it wrong to ask that he not share it with anyone? ... I would be content if he would just stay single Lord; that's it! If he would just stay single Lord, that would be enough for me to be perfectly satisfied. (Almost.) Amen. haha love that...too true! :(
@RachSaysHi But it's not as cute and funny...the only good thing about the BBC one is the line "If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more"
i don't get it, if she loves him and wishes to marry him.. why doesnt she want him to tell her he loves her? or does she think he means that he loves harriet?
I have to say that I love both JN and JLM's Mr. Knightley's, but for different reasons. Jeremy Northam's Mr. Knightley is handsome, dashing, and more lively, whereas JLM's is quiet, solemn, and tender. Love them both!!!
@jules666888 Regarding the BBC/PBS thing, the miniseries was made by the BBC, but it was shown on PBS in America, so I put both so that everyone would know what I meant.
This proposal is quite lovely, but I don't think it quite fits with the way Mr. Knightley was written. Knightley isn't eloquent, he's awkward and doesn't know how to express his feelings. That's why he's supposed to say "If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more." I think the new BBC/PBS version and Jonny Lee Miller did a better job, especially with this scene.
exactly EXACTLY Paltrow's accent is almost hilarious when you compare with Gromola's and the whole scene itself...(BBC)...not PBS (what's that about???)British born(Austen)British made (BBC) always the best combination
you really need to see the more updated version then or read the book I think you'd enjoy both more ever heard an English person doing an American accent? Works both ways...or not.....dismal and insulting
Hugh Laurie is British and all his best work ( in my own opinion ) was done in his beautiful natural English accent , I find his American one in House embarrassing and cringeworthy. Jonny Lee Miller and Gomola Garai star as Knightly and Emma in the new version.
Who did good in Sense & Sensibility? The new adaptation of Emma I couldn't find in any shop except HMV but it was twice the price of Amazon which is where I got mine.
This is the best Emma; best matched actors, even better than the one that just came out this year. I like the moments when they finally met next to the medow, akward of each other when they're already in love with each other but have been friends for so long that they don't know how to confess it.

Dear Lord, if he cannot share a life with me, is it wrong to ask that he not share it with anyone? ... I would be content if he would just stay single Lord; that's it! If he would just stay single Lord, that would be enough for me to be perfectly satisfied. (Almost.) Amen. haha love that...too true! :(

@RachSaysHi But it's not as cute and funny...the only good thing about the BBC one is the line "If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more"

i don't get it, if she loves him and wishes to marry him.. why doesnt she want him to tell her he loves her? or does she think he means that he loves harriet?

I have to say that I love both JN and JLM's Mr. Knightley's, but for different reasons. Jeremy Northam's Mr. Knightley is handsome, dashing, and more lively, whereas JLM's is quiet, solemn, and tender. Love them both!!!

@jules666888 Regarding the BBC/PBS thing, the miniseries was made by the BBC, but it was shown on PBS in America, so I put both so that everyone would know what I meant.

This proposal is quite lovely, but I don't think it quite fits with the way Mr. Knightley was written. Knightley isn't eloquent, he's awkward and doesn't know how to express his feelings. That's why he's supposed to say "If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more." I think the new BBC/PBS version and Jonny Lee Miller did a better job, especially with this scene.
MrsAnneWentworth 2 years ago
exactly EXACTLY Paltrow's accent is almost hilarious when you compare with Gromola's and the whole scene itself...(BBC)...not PBS (what's that about???)British born(Austen)British made (BBC) always the best combination

This video is really sweet I think it is my favorite Jane Austen based movie. Besides Pride and Predjudice of course.
teamausten 2 years ago 16
you really need to see the more updated version then or read the book I think you'd enjoy both more ever heard an English person doing an American accent? Works both ways...or not.....dismal and insulting
jules666888 2 years ago
I thought that House guy was british. Also who sters in the new version of Emma?
teamausten 2 years ago
Hugh Laurie is British and all his best work ( in my own opinion ) was done in his beautiful natural English accent , I find his American one in House embarrassing and cringeworthy. Jonny Lee Miller and Gomola Garai star as Knightly and Emma in the new version.
jules666888 2 years ago
Oh you see I never new his name but he did good in Sense and Sensabliity. Do you know where I could get the new Emma?
teamausten 2 years ago
Who did good in Sense & Sensibility? The new adaptation of Emma I couldn't find in any shop except HMV but it was twice the price of Amazon which is where I got mine.
jules666888 2 years ago
Hugh Laurie plays Mr. Palmer in the sense and Sensibility with Emma Tompson as Elenor. Do you think that I could get Emma on Netflix?
teamausten 2 years ago 2
Probably not but it's worth a try.

This is the best Emma; best matched actors, even better than the one that just came out this year. I like the moments when they finally met next to the medow, akward of each other when they're already in love with each other but have been friends for so long that they don't know how to confess it.
