    StarsColin FirthJennifer EhleSusannah Harker
    The best version, a bit long but never dull ... mainly thanks to Colin Firth. Whatever he does, for me (and with me many), he will be Mr Darcy.

    Greer Garson is a lovely Lizzy. She is actually my favourite. Though Laurence Olivier is a great actor, he is no mr Darcy.

    Lovely Emma film, mainly due to Mark Strong as mr Knightly and Raymond Coulthard as Frank Churchill.
