Over the past quarter century, “Emma” filmed four times. The advantages of this version — good casting, a lot of attention to costumes and “clean” frames.
To Alicia Silverstone, Gwyneth Paltrow and Kate beckinsale joins another Emma-Anya Taylor-joy. Despite the fatigue of the audience from the familiar story of Jane Austen novel, the filmmakers can’t stop.
“Emma” – very funny Jane Austen novel, and at the same time the least eventful. The main character is a young and attractive snob, which sometimes comically falls into the delusion, sometimes thoughtlessly cruel, but still guided by good intentions. Your snobbery young Emma less aware of the audience and hardly capable of deep introspection. We will not delve into the retelling of the story, because the adventures of 21-year-old “matchmaker” familiar to most potential viewers.
A film based on a classic British novel, is, respectively, i.e., in all possible ways reflects his era. Buildings, interiors, scenery, costumes successfully designed in the manner of the late XVIII – early XIX century. The reconstruction era is one of the key arguments in favor of the film. Directed by Autumn de Wilde has a wealth of experience of the photographer, and it reads in the composition and recording “clean” frames. New “Emma” – a visual treat in the first place. But it is primarily for those who will evaluate the work on costumes and ready to withstand slow pace of the narrative.

The success or failure of adaptations like this, in most depends on the “chemistry” between the Central pair of actors. In the end, this movie is solely about feelings and emotions, and even the restrained and aristocratic, where the largest sexual tension between partners can be dancing at a ball or an eloquent glance. Fortunately, Anya Taylor-joy and johnny Flynn all right with the magnetism between the characters, it is read from the screen and even a bit intriguing (in the case of re-re-priispolzovanii of the plot – a big plus). Some of the characters of the tape do not correspond to their book images that may confuse the viewer who is familiar with this story, or the reader, which is not as imagined characters.
The film “Emma” categorically does not bring anything new to the already removed film adaptation, but well kept, as an original work – due to the structure, actors and entourage. Will appeal to fans of Jane Austen’s works, fans of “old school” romance and England of the Regency era.
