He did an amazing job!!!!

It would have been a very difficult role to handle, but I thought she did a great job.<BR/><BR/>Clare - I agree! I'm looking forward to seeing Michael Gambon in this.<BR/><BR/>Laurie - I read the post on your blog, and I thought it was very good! If anyone wants to read Laurie's post, please <A HREF="http://old-fashionedcharm.blogspot.com/2009/04/first-casting-news-for-emma.html" REL="nofollow">CLICK HERE</A><BR/><BR/>Dawn Dancer - I was exactly the same! For some reason, Romola Garai never crossed my mind when I was thinking of potential Emmas. I can't believe that I never thought of her! She's perfect for the role!<BR/><BR/>Livi - yes, I know! :-D Three Jane Austen movies for JLM. . . is that a new record? Can anyone else think of any actors who have been in three or more JA movies?The Editrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01184804847476554759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7640277016633958889.post-49800905886138689602009-04-05T11:57:00.000+10:002009-04-05T11:57:00.000+10:00lol, Jonny Lee Miller was in the 1983 Mansfield Pa...lol, Jonny Lee Miller was in the 1983 Mansfield Park too!Livihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04423541062156478872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7640277016633958889.post-8410022465176993042009-04-05T11:47:00.000+10:002009-04-05T11:47:00.000+10:00Oh!

I can't stand they way the actor for Mr. Knightley LOOKS, but I have never seen him act. Michael Gambon seems to hale and hearty and big for Mr. Woodhouse... but maybe he'll just have a much different appearance than in movies I have seen him in.

I never did end up finish <I>Amazing Grace</I>, but I loved her in Daniel Deronda...she seems like a perfect Emma to me.<BR/><BR/>I don't believe I've ever seen Jonny Lee Miller before, as I certainly didn't ever catch 1999's Mansfield Park. I'm not quite sure <I>what</I> to think of him...he doesn't seem to me like he would fit the character very well...I'm disappointed.<BR/><BR/>Sir Michael Gambon seems like a perfect fit for Mr. Woodhouse to me!<BR/><BR/>~Emilyemmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08445617434980648477noreply@blogger.com
