Ep 10: Experimenting with Movie Commentary - Douglas McGrath’s Emma

[NEW FILE AVAILABLE - Dear listeners, we discovered and deployed some further audio fixes after releasing this episode, so if your episode auto-downloaded, we recommend deleting and re-downloading it to get the new version. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience!]

Hello First Impressions fans! Everyone, we bespeak your indulgence: Episode 10 of the podcast is our experimental attempt to do a Rifftrax-style movie commentary on Douglas McGrath's adaptation of Emma (starring Gwyneth Paltrow and Jeremy Northam). This track is meant to be listened to while simultaneously watching the movie (we tell you when to press play!), however, if you're just doing data entry at work, Maggie tells me that it is still quite entertaining to listen to on its own.

Two important notes! First, we pretty much talk over the whole movie, so, if you've never seen the movie before, you might want to give it a watch on its own first! Our verdict is that a delightful adaptation.

Second, the audio quality improves greatly at minute 18, as we discovered and corrected a minor microphone issue. Better late than never, right? 

Thanks to all for indulging our experiment, and look for our next podcast on Lady Susan, including a movie review of Whit Stillman's Love and Friendship, coming soon!
