Emma Thompson

Get movies starring Emma Thompson on VHS, DVD, or Blue-Ray from Amazon.

       Emma Thompson is always wonderful, but I think she really shone as the middle-aged, big, gawky, awkward woman in "Last Chance Harvey" with Dustin Hoffman.  This movie itself and both leading actors were sadly underrated in this film about love coming around again- and fast.  Emma Thompson also co-stole the show in "Remains of the Day" along with Anthony Hopkins.  One has to be an extremely fine actor to even share the stage equally with Mr. Hopkins and Emma did it with great sensitivity.  "Remains of the Day" interestingly was written by Kazuo Ishiguru, not Jane Austen or E. M. Forster, whose films Emma Thompson has always stood out in and "Remains of the Day" interestingly is reminscent of Austen's  and Forster's work.
