Basically I've read Emma by Jane Austen and just seen the film adaptation by Autumn de Wilde. I'm not over it and have some points to get through:
The film is so awkward and yet so aesthetically pleasing at the same time, OMGGG.
Emma's sass at the beginning! particularly in the scene when she's opening the carriage window to listen to Miss Bates. Dear Lord, she's the epitome of sassines.
How Emma and Mr Knightley are always drawn to eachother. Even when they're arguing they cannot help it but get nearer and nearer and look like they're about to kiss.
When they laugh together after the baby scene! It was such a good way to make it clear that they were still comfortable with eachother and had definitely made up after their argument.
All the glances they exchange.
The ball, obviously the ball. In particular how they are focused only on eachother, how they miss a step because of that, and the hands at the end.
The scene at the end when they are all reading end exchanging covert glances.
How totally smitten Mr Knightley is by Emma.
Their talk about Mr Knightley coming to live at Hartfield. It is the wisest decision and yet few people would have made it in that time and age.
The kiss.
How Mr Knightley cries twice; once out of despair, once out of happiness.
The fact that the film ends with a shot of Emma's pleased expression, BECAUSE IT'S HER STORY.
Some other valuable reflections:
Mr Woodhouse is the keeper of my serotonin. How he is portrayed in this film has so good a comedic effect that I am not to complain about the differences of his situation from how it's described in the book.
The actors are amazing, so neat and expressive.
Even though the plot doesn't always follow the book I believe that the story is well depicted (but I still miss the scene where Mr Knightley almost kisses Emma's hand before leaving for London).
The quotes they decided to use are truly spot on.
Wuthering Heights illustration – Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw as children, by Lady Edna Clarke Hall (c. 1910-11).
*squeals* cathy and heathcliff running around the heights and the moors with an half exasperated half angry nelly chasing after them.
