Watch: Emma

I fell in a Constance Grady rabbit hole last week (as one does and if one hasn’t, they should, with this as required reading). While going through her page, I realized I’d missed her review of the latest Jane Austen adaptation when it first ran. For reasons that were admittedly prurient, I immediately sank my teeth into Why Autumn de Wilde’s new Emma movie is so horny. Throughly convinced of its cinematic import, I decided to watch the movie and was so glad I did. I found it wheezingly funny and Bill Nighy as the hilariously quirky Mr. Woodhouse was just delightful. Highly recommend for lovers of the Jane Austen universe and/or of British humor. And if after watching, you were to fall into an Emma rabbit hole this was a fun read as well.
