Emma
1996
Jane Austen's novel of manners comes to life as the clever and well-meaning Emma Woodhouse meddles in the romantic affairs of those around her, blind to her own feelings in the process. This adaptation captures the wit and warmth of the source material in the picturesque English countryside.
