I liked the balanced approach, the careful integration of literary and film criticism, and the perceptive analyses of the unpublished screenplays. I found it eminently readable, not heavily laden with critical jargon - a good read for scholars and Austen fans alike.

(Sue Parrill, Professor Emeritus of English, Southeastern Louisiana University; Author, 'Jane Austen on Film and Television: A Critical Study of the Adaptations' (2002)) As Catherine Morland has 'just learnt to love a hyacinth,' I have just learnt to appreciate Austen adaptations thanks to Marc DiPaolo's book. In the future, I intend to be much more forgiving of directors and screenwriters who take on the difficult task of 'adapting' Austen, particularly 'Emma'. Thanks to this book, I'm open to filmic possibilities.
