I have to watch Emma again soon.

As Mr Knightley, he makes me absolutely SWOON. I think Blackwood in Sherlock Holmes and Jim Prideaux in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy are my favorite performances of his. He is so versatile--even with his rather large collection of villainous characters, he always looks and sounds different with every role.

That was a great role for him.<br /><br />I have to say that the Kate Beckinsale version of Emma is my least fave and yet I love him as Mr. Knightley in it. All the Knightleys are great (OK, JLM is the definitive one for me but I wouldn't kick Mark Strong's Knightley out of bed for eating crackers!)Jenny Allworthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08518779478842699970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8833418224175267236.post-64287241765074369202012-09-09T23:59:35.515-04:002012-09-09T23:59:35.515-04:00It seems like you can hardly go two films without ...It seems like you can hardly go two films without finding one that he's in. My favorite would be his role in Stardust.<br /><br />I find his version of Emma to be a more serious adaptation of the three you mentioned. His Knightly is more like I imagined him in the book, as far as age range.sawcathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05665856636670547062noreply@blogger.com
