Sense and Sensibillities
+ "Undervalued, in Some Respects" + Elegant adaptation of the classic

Emma (A&E, 1997) 157 reviews Kate Beckinsale, Bernard Hepton
A&E Home Video, 1999
Truly the Best Emma
+ 4.5
This Emma is the best production. The others don't compare with this one. Kate Beckinsdale is very good as the lead character and the production is much more realistic than the others out there. Emma is a difficult book to produce it is a bit thin and shallow. This is the first show I've seen ...

Mansfield Park (BBC, 1986) 65 reviews Jackie Smith-Wood, Robert Burbage
BBC Warner, 2004
Fabulous for the Purist!!
+ Review of Mansfield Park + Mansfield Park
Excellent adaptation. I dislike, very much, when a teleplay strays from the story you already know and love. It disturbs me greatly when a story is so rushed. This story is not so rushed and allows the imagination to play along. I am so happy that I heeded to the 5 star reviews instead of the 1 ...

Persuasion (BBC, 1971) 58 reviews Anne Firbank, Bryan Marshall
BBC Warner, 2004
A good dramitization. Very good character development and good countryside settings
+ Persuasion..1971 + My favourite Anne Elliot
I guess that folks are just not used to doing things people did in 19th century England, like going off hunting, walking, gathering hazelnuts, listening to the skylarks, walking by the sea and looking at the fishermen, listing to a harp. Boring, Boring, Boring... Yes, back to your TV, back to ...

it passes muster
+ A Disappointing Success? + Jane
For those of you who absolutely loved Mansfield Park, the book, and are hopeless Jane Austen purists this movie will probably disappoint you. If on the other hand, you are like me and are a devoted fan of Jane Austen and a purist about everything else Jane Austen, yet for some reason you didn't ...

Emma (BBC, 1972) 28 reviews Doran Godwin, John Carson
BBC Warner, 2004
Very Good
+ Emma + It's engaging
Great Adaptation. I think that in some ways I liked the way Jane Fairfax was played better in this version than the one Gwyneth Paltrow was in. I think that the interfering Mrs Elton was also played very well.
