Review of Emma.

Emma. (2020)
5/10
Faithful adaptation of book
4 March 2020
It was a bit of a change for me to see a film based on a book I'd read. Not the biggest reader ever, so this doesn't happen too often. Anyway the movie certainly captured the mood of the book.

The movie tells the story of Emma who enjoys sorting out other peoples love life presumably as a distraction from worrying about her own. Anya Taylor-Joy was very good in the lead role and is well supported by Johnny Flynn and Mia Goth as George Knightly and Harriet Smith. I have to confess that I've rather fallen out of love with Bill Nighy though. He seems to play the identical role in every film he features in.

If you enjoyed the book then there's a good chance you'll enjoy this movie. If you still enjoy the quirky Bill Nighy role then you'll enjoy it even more.
