Review Time

Warning: there is medical/animal cruelty

Dating in the 1800 is so hard work: in summary we meet Emma Woodhouse [Anya Taylor-Joy] the resident matchmaker this film follows her doing her thing, who knows she may find love herself? The pacing for this 124 minutes film is slow, but eventually somebody lets the handbrake off, granted is still isn't the most quickest film, but at least it is more upwardly mobile.

I don't have too much to say about this film; I mean the art as it relates to the scenery, costumes and so on look excellent as it really does transport you from our world in present times being 2022 [when this first was being dictated] into the 1800. There are some elements of comedy such as for one example Mr Woodhouse [Bill Nighy] being either paranoid or/and hypochondriac or both about feeling basically feeling the cold or when this character/performer is just being himself; this is an excellent performance from Bill Nighy, he does tend to stick out in this film when he is on screen being himself or go off on one. All the other character developments and performances are all good.

This film receives: 6/10, this film is good; this is one of those films that if you are interested in a period drama then this film will suit you down to the ground. This film has so many awards accredited to it in one way or another; 10 Winners that include Chicago Film Critics Association Awards 2020; CFCA Award Best Costume Design and DiscussingFilm Critics Awards 2021 Jury Award Best Costume Design Alexandra Byrne. Nominees 60 including Academy Awards, USA 2021 Oscars Best Achievement in Makeup and Hairstyling Marese Langan Laura Allen Claudia Stolze and then Best Achievement in Costume Design Alexandra Byrne.
