Masterpiece Theater's new movie, Jane Austen's Emma, had all of the charm of the box office hit, with all of the detail of the book. It is quite a shame that the same detail was not taken to the interior design of the set. Throughout Emma's beautiful home, time and time again, wall decor was hung too high. Seriously- this is a professional production- and that is a novice mistake. Hanging items too high is not a "period" thing- it is just wrong- in this century, as well as the last, and the one before that... Mr. Knightely, however- was quite handsome.

So true, but I loved it still. :o)
If you missed it- http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/emma/ You can catch it online still. I am watching anxiously for Northanger Abbey and Persuasion!
And here is another that I loved-

After you watch that be sure to watch return to Cranford. On the same site.
