My Say:
Yay--who else voted for Beckinsale with me? It includes the Word Game! And a much more meek, ignorant, and ridiculous Harriet (which is how I always read her). Lovely scenery. A much more understandable and less likeable Emma. Austen's favorite heroine was Emma--and readers were not meant to love everything about her! She was supposed to get on your nerves. Paltrow Emma was just too funny to laugh at that my annoyance was more a roll of the eyes instead of a smack the TV screen. But nothing--not one thing--can beat Jeremy Northam. Oh my. We'll just end it there.
2022…a year I’ll never forget and why…

I like the Kate Beckinsale version because I felt like they portrayed Emma more as she should be: spoiled and bratty. (Although I still adore Gwyneth's version)
Badly done, Emma! :p
Ha ha--what a great quote. I say it to myself all the time. And then don't listen, because my name is Heidi. :-)
Oh, Mr. Knightly! So dreamy! I'll not lie, that's why I voted for G. Paltrow. It was for Mr. Knightly!
