The Best Quotes From The 2020 Remake Of Emma By Jane Austen

Emma has been remade time and time again, but most recently in 2020. Here are my favorite quotes from Emma, the 2020 movie version.

I had never seen Emma before (although Clueless is one of my favorite movies of all time), so I was intrigued by it right away. I love all of these quotes from the 2020 version of Emma. Not sure if any of them are in previous versions, or the book.
