Ooohhh...I sha'n't diss the Paltrow version since you like it so, but I honestly cannot stand her or Jeremy Northam (although I will admit he was great in The Winslow Boy; he's just not Mr. Knightley, IMO). A large part of my bias for the KB adaptation could possibly be that I saw it before I'd had any other Austen "experience", and I read the book afterwards. Mark Strong is too grumpy and yells a bit much, but he's more the type of man that I think Austen was going for, whereas Jeremy Northam and even Jonny Lee Miller in the newest travesty are too "cute guy next door". You know they're going to end up with Emma right away, whereas Mr. Knightley is supposed to be a surprise...
