I've never read Mansfield Park. Darn. No wonder it's not mentioned as much as Austen's other works. Okay -- break, here. I just went to read a summary of Mansfield Park and I can see why you hated it, just from the character descriptions. It sounds like everyone's either drunk, unhappy or mean. Hmm.<br /><br />Emma is definitely a breath of fresh air, but I'll bet it was especially so after that cast!Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-54225932488039616242010-08-14T21:53:38.021-05:002010-08-14T21:53:38.021-05:00I read Manfield Park right before Emma and loathed...I read Manfield Park right before Emma and loathed it. Starting Emma was like when you open all the windows in the house on a crisp fall day after months of stale air-conditioned air.

I don't know whose head that is, but I think Mr. Elton could stand a beheading.<br /><br />Amanda,<br /><br />I didn't realize Clueless was based on Emma till recently, either. And, since I saw Clueless so long ago (and hadn't yet read Emma), I suppose I'll have to check it out from the library for a second viewing, sometime. I remember I wasn't as impressed as the critics, but it was pretty hyped.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-26941780020599282482010-08-12T10:42:15.248-05:002010-08-12T10:42:15.248-05:00My favorite version of Emma is Clueless (the movie...My favorite version of Emma is Clueless (the movie). It's funny - I didn't realize Clueless was based on Emma, so when I was reading Emma and knew what was coming in advance, I went to tell Jason and he laughed at me.
