Trivia
While she recovered from wisdom-tooth surgery, Gwyneth Paltrow had a month to herself to do her own research for the part of Emma Woodhouse. She also studied horsemanship, dancing, singing, archery and the "highly stylized" manners and dialect during a three-week rehearsal period.
Quotes
Frank Churchill:
Is your horse just washing his feet or are the darker forces at work here?
Emma Woodhouse:
The latter, I'm afraid. Something's happened to the wheel and I cannot move.
Frank Churchill:
You'll just have to live here then. Buhbye.
Goofs
During Mr. Knightley's proposal scene, Emma's hair changes. At first, the curls are quite close to her forehead, by the end of the scene, they are all the way back on her crown.
