Emma” is bound to stand out in such company. It's the only one of Austen's novels to not only be named for its heroine, but to endow her with a fortune and a life of ease. Not only is she “handsome, clever, and rich,” she's reached the age of 21 with “very little to distress or vex her.” Even in her small circle she is an exception to the rule; she needs nothing from no one, and has none of the usual inducements to marry. Anderson and Flynn sing a duet of 'Drink to me Only With Thine Eyes' written by Ben Jonson in the film during a ball scene. But it is “Emma,” a seemingly light, fluffy comedy of manners, with little plot to speak of and a heroine who has the least to fear, that gives us one of the most vulnerable characters Austen ever created, who may actually be Emma's true foil. The 2020 adaptation chose Harriet for this role, but despite her relative class difference to her more genteel neighbors, Harriet has still been relatively protected, and provided with a home and income of her own, albeit a limited one. Emma tries to spend more time with Mr. Knightley and is surprised when he repeatedly ignores her. On a picnic with their entire party of social acquaintances, Frank urges them to play a game to amuse Emma, who unthinkingly insults Miss Bates, leading the party to disband. Mr. Knightley rebukes Emma for her behaviour, and a humiliated Emma apologizes to Miss Bates, who accepts her apology without question. Let me entreat you to read Emma – it is the very perfection of novel-writing – and I cannot praise it more highly than by saying it is often extremely like your own method of describing things – so much effect with so little effort!"

Meanwhile, unbeknownst to Emma, Harriet develops a crush on Mr Knightley after he asks her to dance when Mr Elton has refused to dance with Harriet when prompted. Emma, who believes that Harriet holds a secret regard for Frank, says that she should not give up hope because there have been many other happy though unequal matches. When Emma discovers the truth, she is both appalled and dismayed, which leads to her realisation that she is in love with Knightley. Mrs Elton's relationship to Jane Fairfax parodies Emma's relationship to Harriet.Menzel, Scott (2 February 2021). "The 4th Annual HCA Film Awards Nominations Have Been Announced".

Fairfax, an infantryman, and his wife, Jane Bates, who was the daughter of Mr and Mrs. Bates and the sister of Miss Bates. Both her parents died by the time she was three years old; her father died in action abroad, and her mother died soon afterwards from consumption and grief. [1] John Knightley is Isabella's husband and George's younger brother, 31 years old. He is an attorney by profession. Like the others raised in the area, he is a friend of Jane Fairfax. He greatly enjoys the company of his family, including his brother and his Woodhouse in-laws, but is not a very sociable sort of man. He is forthright with Emma, his sister-in-law, and close to his brother. It is only Mr Knightley who can willingly share the burden of Emma's father, as well as providing her with guidance, love and companionship. He has been in love with her since she was 13 years old, but neither he nor she have realized that there is a natural bond between them. He declares his love for her: "What did she say? Just what she ought, of course. A lady always does.". [54] Female empowerment [ edit ]
