Emma. | Miss Taylor’s Wedding | Extended Preview 

Yes 😭😭💔 He doesn't want to be left alone!

Mr. WoodHouse’s character hates change.

Yup, I also wonder about the big estate like this..is that common in UK? I also noticed for this kind of era films, it's either son (pride & prejudice) or daughter (downtown abbey) will be entitled to inherit the estate..how they decide between that? 🤔

@@azwasaaidns3936 that's the worst part. Only the first borne gets the estate. The other siblings don't.

@@chummychimchim in Emma Emma Woodhouse is the 2nd daughter.

Bill is good value in everything. 8-)

True

Yes! I love him as Mr. Woodhouse. His other best scene was when he was anxiously asking if Harriet was dead. He stole the scene right there 🤣

I love his Mr. Woodhouse because he plays him not as a hypochondriac, but as a man who is getting old and his children are fleeing the nest. Mentally this Mr. Woodhouse is there and physically he is strong. He just doesn’t want change.

Yes. The mise-en-scène.

It is all so beautifully done

Agreee 😭😭

Yes! I just realized that. Lol

Replayed at 6:21 just to verify. I thought I knew her from first sight but didn't note it until you pointed it out.

Well spotted.

I had to pause the video and say 'Is that who I think it is!?'. Glad I am not the only who picked it up!

Yes. She was also briefly in the new Four Weddings and a Funeral that was on Hulu.

That all pink room in the beginning just about made me giddy and want to Jump into the screen! 😊

Shabby chic.

It’s too clean. Unrealistic of the time . Pride and Prejudice the film has a better period feel . Things were not this clean then

I didn’t care much for the pastel look of everything, as people wore vivid dark colors even then, and the houses at the time showed that style. But, the clothes were fantastic is silhouette and trend!

​@@Udontkno7 Well the interiors of Wilton house (pictured at 5:22) cannot be described as pastel, look at the Baroque “Double Cube Room” (decorated in 1653) at 6:09, or the “Single Cube Room” (decorated at some point between 1630-1645) straight after - not forgetting the two rooms before that: “the Colonnade Room” and “Great Anteroom” (although you couldn’t really see much of them). However the orange cloisters did fit the time period/ films aesthetic (having been installed around 1810). The houses/ people of the time definitely retained older styles, look at what was used to depict Rosings Park in the 2005 adaption of Pride and Prejudice; the Renaissance Burghley House (built 1555-1587), along with some of the Baroque interiors such as the “Heaven Room” (decorated in 1690), even Lady Catherine de Bourgh herself wore clothes/ hair of an older age. So of course not everything will have been redecorated in the Regency style, but I think it was important for the film to show strong attributes of the period in order to convey it successfully to the audience - plus I really loved the colours!

snobby and arrogant - yes! But never cold and aloof!

Oh please she is soo snobby!!! With a heart of gold! She has no idea she is snobby. She just wants to do good in the world she is in. I love her soo much. Mr. Knightley compliments her personality perfectly

Jane Austen herself described her as "a heroine nobody but myself will like". But yeah. Her evolution by the ending was wonderful.

Well, book Emma is very snobby, arrogant and a mean gossip to begin with. She is very kind to her family and close friends, but towards people lower in status than her she is very inconsiderate. She does manage to grow out of it somewhat by the end of the book.

I like Emma. I don’t care if she is snobby or arrogant. Austen was able to take a character with really nothing special and made her special.

After reading the book I thought it was mainly because Emma loved to receive praise, even from Mr. Knightley as he was prone to criticising her quite often

@@monicabarkho999 Yeah because he would check and criticize, she always wanted to impress him most because everyone else was always so enamored with her.

Human can manage how to have nose bleed?

@@novisabillan9299 on cue!

I know, that caught me off guard the first time I watched the movie😲😃

Nice

Right? 😂

Yes

its so strange to see her in such a feminine look

That’s where I knew her from! I’d been trying to place her, thank you

She's also very good in Upstart Crow

@@Honey511Bee And in Gentleman Jack!

Canuckmom1958 I agree. I love the version with Kate Beckinsale and Mark Strong best too :-)

Couldnt agree more!

That's my favourite version. This is too modern for me.

Completely agree. This is not a version which is likely to appeal to those who love Jane Austen's books. Why can't film companies leave well enough alone.

I had the feeling when I rented this movie that as much as I like Anya Taylor-Joy I don't think she carried this film well enough to compensate for some of the more boring parts. She was not portrayed as likable enough to offset her annoying petulance. In other versions we know she is somewhat a snob but she is also innocent enough in her high mindedness to be forgiven. In this version, she fails to be likable and one wonders what Mr. Knightly could possibly see in her. I didn't see any chemistry between the two and Johnny Flynn seems an unlikely admirer. and vice verse. I blame the director as all the characters are good actors but this version was not a good one and the gratuitous nude scene ridiculous and cringe-worthy...wrong parade.

agree. Costumes and photography are top notch.

The whole point of the book was how snobby and childish she was, i would say she has a faster character growth in the book which makes her more likeable

Jane Austen wanted to create a dislikable character only she would like

She is even more snobby in the book, especially with Robert Martin and the Coles even if they aren't bad people. She lectures Mr Knightley too because he doesn't use a carriage like a proper gentleman lol

You def read the wrong book then lol she is dislikeable and snobby at most in the book and gradually growing

Wow you really don't understand subtlety

Viktor.

I watched it twice on the plane! Simply love the different facial expressions of Emma in the movie. A very enjoyable movie indeed.

actually. this is more historically accurate than the 90’s version ! if you’re talking costuming and such :)

@@emmam5738 these are similar to fashion plates of 1830s ..but Emma was mostly of 1800s that is around 1801 to 1810. 20 years of fashion difference 😶

I have studied fashion plates and extant garments from the period this film, and thereby the novel, is set in (around 1815); while I am no expert, I can guarantee this is the most accurate depiction of the Regency costume I have seen in any Jane Austen adaptation. Emma's spencer (the pink jacket she wears during the wedding) is actually based off of a spencer in the Churtsey Museum collection (although the collar has been greatly simplified). The sheer top she wears over her dress in the opening scene is a canezou, examples of which can be seen in a number of paintings from the time. In the last scene in this clip, Emma wears a coral bodice over her dress, which is in fact copied from a painting. In one scene from the movie, she wears a ballgown that is an almost exact replica of one in the V&A Museum from 1810. I do not see where you got the 1830s from, as 1830s fashion is wildly different from the fashions shown in this film, especially the silhouette. While the costume designer did take some liberties; i.e., regarding the occasion for which various ensembles were worn and the number of bonnets Emma owns, I can say with almost absolute certainty that this movie is a shining example of how accurate costuming can enhance a film without sacrificing artistic liberties.

because it shows the reality of Regency era. They dug into their clothing way more than the vast majority of period dramas so far. It was an integral part of a gentleman' life.

Si me gusta el coche de enma y su hermosa relación con su padre y con las personas del lugar

Tis for Jane Austen buffs.

Characters and costumes.

I agree. It seems to have too much modernity about it and not enough Georgian.

kieghacat people haven’t changed, just way people write about people changes. The past is often romanticized but it’s all fiction

Jane Austen intended for Emma to be unlikable at the beginning. This adaptation does a great job at showing how Emma starts off as self-satisfied and manipulative (as much as she doesn't try to be) and grows to be more responsible and understanding. As for the mannerisms; the cast had to go through training and rehearsals in order to act in accordance with the manners and behavior expected at the time, so for the most part, how they behave is completely historically accurate.

I agree with the earlier comments; Jane Austen herself described Emma as a heroine no one but her would like. And like someone said before, people don’t change, just our interpretations and ideas of what people must’ve been like change as they are often romanticised through time. Saying that we watch period dramas to escape the way modern people act only “adds force to my argument” to quote Emma 2009.

I agree. The movie is so heavily styled...even the music...that it seems filled more with caricatures than characters.

Yes

Exactly.This is awful.I like 1972 version.& 2009

In this case is you who didnt got the spirit of the book at all.

The sexuaisation may seem unAustenian, but only, i think, because of our own vision of what sexualisation might have been in that era. Austen's writing was meant to thrill the audience of her times. I think this is just adjusting it to suit the audience of ours. What say? As a movie though, I do think it cuts corners to its detriment when it comes to telling the story 'properly'.

Just because you show a butt doesn't mean you are sexualizing them.

The fact that you found that single butt shot “oversexualized” says more about you than the filmmakers.

@@feroluce Thrill? Evidence required.

Well, swimming in the lake has already been done. They had to find another way to provide the eye-candy (lol).

actually if you had researched or thought a bit about the director's intentions the dressing scene was used to show the uncomfortable nature of the clothing of the time and also start your perception of the character from an intimate 'no facades' place. also putting a spin on the fact that womens body are most objectified and it would usually be the classic 'woman getting dressed and put together' instead it was a man. So yeah a little bit more than just 'eye candy'.

unlikeable because she's emma lmao, what do you expect? i enjoy it though the coloring and costumes are pretty and historically accurate compared to other period movies, quite satisfying

pureblood princess the other Emma’s were also spoiled but, especially Romani Farsi

Sorry, romali garai was expressive and vulnerable. Watch that Emma and see what you think

@@jodybrauner9790 ​ Austen said that no one would like Emma, she didn't want her to be likable. This Emma is expressive and vulnerable too but I don't think comparing her to Garai's portrayal is a good argument because that version isn't accurate. The actress was so exaggeratedly expressive sometimes she seemed giddy and her posture was faulty. Emma has a happy disposition but she's refined and well-behaved so while annoying her arrogance towards others makes sense for someone like her. The series catered to a modern audience so they chose to make Emma more likable so that you blame her flaws on her being a 'child'. She isn't really humbled in the end if she's nice from the start. No wonder why some hate Knightley: how can they really get he's right when he argues with her when it seems like she's just a misunderstood victim.

It suppose to be that way

It is the beauty of Jane Austen's quick wit

Ditto

Yeah i was laughing the whole time I first saw the whole movie it was so well done

Innocence. In No sense 🤣

And when he says "For in thy SIGHT!!!!" and yells put that last word, I still roll around laughing 😁

Exactly! It is more of a comedy and they made it more so in the way they made it

It keeps the comedy, and even has the same feeling as Clueless

@@cataryad661 It really does! Just the aesthetic

@@cataryad661 Clueless is based on Emma. But I like Emma coz it's much more fancy. ☺️

@@miming6377 I know, that’s why I referenced it 😜 I think Clueless stands on its own pretty well though. Even with all the 90s references, it doesn’t feel all that dated - at least to me

Yea... plus she’s really hot.

right, i love her so much

@@haywoodjablomee6671 excuse me sir wtf

For me, she is the worst choice for the character of "Emma". You could never compare her with the brilliant performance of Romola Garai, who played the part in 2009. Yes, "Emma" is posh and snobbish, but never arrogant or coldhearted, like Taylor Joy portrays her. I could hardly watch her act...!

@@gerbiei.1370 Worst "Emma" ever!

Ryota Arai Seriously though. That was the most appropriate entrance they could have given a lovable ham like Nighy.

Where's part 2 ?

Man's great INNERDSsence.

Man's great in no sense.

@@DavidOfWhitehills No sense indeed😂😂

manage to grow 80 years old and you might not have to imagine any more.

Julia Yenia hahaha that’s a horrifying thought

Is it out already? When I ordered from the BBC it tends to not work on my BLU-ray

Sandra norman it’s out on AppleTV

I can only recommend the 2009-BBC-version of "Emma" with Romola Garai. Best adaptation ever!

Susie -J Morgan on amazon it’s on 14.99 to buy

Nena Mtz bought it this evening...💓💓💓

Good luck to universal looking to rent to families, because they've just lost all their single customers.

It’s free in Flenix and flixtor

yes too expensive...

Bill is one of the few reasons for watching this disappointing adaptation at all...

_And the scenes which have dancing, which in the movie last several minutes and the characters display a lot of wordless expression and body language -- how could any of that be Jane Austen's book._ Answer: easily. Dances turn up in more than half of Jane Austen's published stories, and they usually are crucial to the plot of the character development. And yes, it is quite possible to describe body language, looks, impressions and so on on paper, and to do it well. Don't take it from me, you can read Mansfield Park, or Pride and Prejudice, or Emma, or Northanger Abbey ... it's not so pronounced in Sense and Sensibility, but it's there, too. Use of body language and facial expressions turns up all over the place in Jane Austen's stories. What the point of the added nudity was - I have no clue. To make it look modern, or risqué, or daring? Gettting-dressed scenes can be great to give us a look into the world a character inahbits - see the "dangerous liaisons" movie with Michelle Pfeiffer. In this one? _Oh look, a naked bottom._ Also, I just learned that both romantic leads have something in common: they are bottle blond and get dressed in the morning. Clearly, they are made for each other! No seriously: those two scenes looked suspiciously like somebody had decided that the movie nees to have something that sets it apart from a few dozen other Jane Austen adaptations, and it was that or slaughtering a pig on-screen. I agree that the movie is extremely visual, but that kind of comes with being a movie. I just wish the director had relied on the movie being so very visual and tuned down the music, because that comes along like a sledge hammer, trying to point out how funny, ironic or entertaining something is. All in all, this movie feels like the director didn't even expect the viewers to pay attention, so he made all the characters so in-your-face vapid, full of themself, silly that you won't miss it even if the movie runs in the background while you're playing Forge of Empires.

Jane Austen has a great many references to specific music in all her novels; fewer perhaps in Northanger Abbey.

Yes it is!
