Title: The better "Emma"
Product review: As compared with the Gwyneth Paltrow version, the A&E version is by far the better "Emma". First, Kate Beckinsale was far better than Gwyneth in portraying the character. Gwyneth didn't make me believe she was an 18th century aristocratic lady, whereas Kate did. Second, the A&E version better portrayed the relationship between Mr. Knightly and Emma. Emma was much, much younger than Mr. Knightly, which was in keeping with the fashion of the day. Third, the character development was superior in the A&E version. Lastly, the A&E version was truer to the period than the one from Hollywood.Bottom line, if you want a version of Emma that's truer to the period, go with the A&E version. If you want typical Hollywood fluff, go with either "Clueless" or the Gwyneth Paltrow version.
