| Notes: | Jane Austen’s beautiful, accomplished heroine has only one fault — her love of matchmaking. With the best intentions, Emma decides which of her friends should marry, then makes elaborate plans to pair everyone off. But she finds out the hard way that people don’t fall in love according to plan. The movie, starring Gwyneth Paltrow, is entertaining, and faithful to the story. But watching the movie does not count as having read the book. |
