Sorry, Gwyneth Paltrow, but Romola Garai is our Emma Woodhouse. (And Austen MVP Miller is most certainly our Mr. Knightley.) Emma is such a tricky character to translate to the screen, because she's the ultimate busybody. However, Garai makes Emma's endless matchmaking seem well-intentioned rather than reckless. And when her schemes get too out of hand, Miller's Mr. Knightley is always ready to offer a counterargument as her long-suffering and eager verbal sparring partner.
The miniseries gets pretty much everything about Emma right, and that includes the sizzling hot chemistry between Emma and Mr. Knightley.
