Plot 

The film follows Emma Woodhouse, played by Anna Taylor-Joy. Emma is a beautiful young lady of Regency-era England hailing from a good family. Emma searches for a new friend after her governess got married. She befriends Harriet Smith, played by Mia Goth, whose parents are unknown but has her education provided for. When Emma learns that Mr. Martin, played by Connor Swindells, and Harriet reciprocate feelings of love, she claims she wouldn’t interfere with it, but manipulates Harriet into rejecting Mr. Martin, because Emma believed that Mr. Elton likes Harriet. She similarly keeps on interfering in the love life of those around her, and although she never has any bad intentions, complicates others’ as well as her own relationship. The film follows Emma on her journey of interfering in other people’s relationship without any ulterior motives to ultimately finding her own match. 

Star Performance 

Anna Taylor-Joy gives a good performance as Emma. She does not try to make the viewers like Emma, or provide justifications for her selfishness, but portrays Emma as she was written to be. 

Analysis 

The film has good cinematography, and elaborate and detailed costume and set designs. Anna Taylor-Joy and Johnny Flynn have good chemistry together. But the film deviates a little from the novel as the characters lack the charms they had in the novel.  

What’s There?

• The film has good cinematography, costume ,and set design

What’s Not There?

• The film feels bland at times, and some characters are limited by the script

Verdict

The film has good performances, cinematography, and an expansive set-up. But the film lacks the charms the characters had in the novel. The film would be a good watch for romance and drama enthusiasts.
