Emma

The latest version of Jane Austen’s comedy of manors, “Emma” is more faithful to its author’s style. Anya Taylor-Joy is perfect as the title character who meddles in everyone’s business. She dominates the women and intrigues the men with her outspoken manner and confidence. This version is different from the 1996 film starring Gwyneth Paltrow; not so much better but different. For those of you who enjoy period films and Jane Austen this is not to be missed. A warning for the guys: There is very little action. A lot of talk and beautiful scenery and costumes. Well done.
