Emma.

Lavishly rendered read on the Jane Austen classic from director/co-scripter Autumn de Wilde casts Anya Taylor-Joy as self-determined (if self-serving) 19th-century lass Emma Woodhouse, certain that only she knows best for her social circle regarding their romantic entanglements, and Johnny Flynn as gadfly neighbor George Knightley, ever ready to rub it in as her matchmaking schemes backfire. Pleasing take also stars Mia Goth, Josh O’Connor, Bill Nighy, Callum Turner, Rupert Graves. 125 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English. Two-disc set.
