One New & some Encores---

NEW TO ME:

Emma (2009 TV series) Romolo Garai, Michael Gamon, Johnny Lee Miller.  Jane Austen's novel of a meddlesome but sweet young woman who wants her friends to marry well, and who she chooses, is wonderfully realized in the 4 part mini-series.  The village and the homes used in England, make the story all the more real and beautifully realized.  Nominated for many awards, and won an Emmy for hair styling.  8/10  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1366312/combined
