I'm cracking up. Gwyneth Paltrow is SO pointy and I can't believe I've never heard her described that way before.
I saw the new Emma just before lockdown started, and for the most part, I liked it! It really focusses on the friendship between Emma and Harriet, almost positioning it as Emma's most important relationship -- more important than even her romance with Knightley, and honestly? I was there for it.
They kind of downplayed the Jane and Frank stuff in a way I wish they hadn't, but then, I think a lot of other productions have done that, too. And of course, the Box Hill scene made me wish I could sink into the floor.
But -- pretty colors!
(Also, I hate that I'm bogged down by something so shallow, but the girl they've got playing Harriet? Has absolutely NO eyebrows. It's very distracting.)
