Mr. Darcy: So what do you recommend to encourage affection?
Elizabeth Bennet: Dancing. :)

The Eltons fighting in the background make this scene even better.

[senbaenim]

literally every jane austen book-based movie has this part that screams sexual tension between characters and im always here for it

[yespls]

Mr. Knightley has such a quiet confidence that is so attractive. The actor did a great job

[klaralouth]

I love this scene so much. I love how it starts kinda as a friendly fun, then slowly they start to fall for each other and get lost in their thoughts end each other's eyes, forget to dance and when they catch up, they are both like oh no, what is happening...and all that without a single word, just editing and eye contact. Brilliant!

[jana_banana]

the fact that Emma and Mr. Knightley are the only ones not wearing gloves... It makes it seem more intimate and I’m her for it🥺

[lucyhester]

Is no one going to talk about the hand touching WITHOUT gloves????

[mehwish]

No one else said a word about his reaction when she tells him "with you, if you will ask me"...he wasnt prepared for her to want to dance with him...probably wanted it but when she expressed her wish he looked like the ground beneath his feet shook for a second and he was taken aback...suddenly the caring best friend facade was beginning to quiver...and he knew if he dances with her, he will lose his composure. He does maintain it but his face can barely conceal his attraction to her throughout the dance.

I never thought I could be so taken with a BLOND Knightley but here I am, watching this clip over, and over, and over...

[ladyhawke]

How can anyone there not see that they are in love? The sensuality and tenderness in this scene makes it one of the best dancing scenes from period dramas ever!

"To be fond of dancing is one step away from falling in love."
-Jane Austen, Pride & Prejudice

[marialayla]

Knightley's face at 2:22 is absolutely perfect... the brief attempt to not hold eye contact, then forcing himself to continue with that look of anguish. He knows in that moment that he's irrevocably in love with her. And he now has no idea where to go or what to do with that information. I just adore his expressions in this scene.

[tiffanylanekelly]

Two things: 1) I just noticed they are the only two without gloves on—making their touch even more intimate, 2) that slow move of his hand around her back would have been a big no no back then, thus making this dance cross some lines!!! Lol but I like it!

[samsoceans]

You can feel their affection for each other during this dance, it's the best part of the movie.
The chemistry, the tension, the heartbreaking, beautiful music.. That's how you film a scene about love!
This version of Emma is SO underrated in my opinion.

[fangirlfoodie]

I have to continue watching all austen adaptations but so far this is my favorite dance scene. The tension after the clapping...all those getting up close scenes. I love the part where they put their arms up crossing each other's, and then at the end where she doesnt let go of his hand and follows it to the back of her.

[yasminout]

When I told y'all the way I blushed in this scene like I was watching some um moment that wasn't meant to be seen 😂

[justalostsoulhereonyt]

How can you tell if they are in love?
Other people: they kiss
Me: it is dancing without the gloves, the HANDS and the yearning in the eyes👀

[becky]

Even though I love Emma and had seen all the other versions, I was in no rush to see this one for some reason. But then I saw this clip and dropped everything to get my hands on it, and now it’s by far my favorite. This dance literally makes me swoon.

[mm-hjig]

I remember watching this movie when it came out because I had read Emma once for my studies and I thought hey, it'll be a nice time pass. I didn't expect to be so impressed. Since then I've watched it a total of 6 times, and the main reason are these 2 and their CHEMISTRY. Gosh, the way he's looking at her. It gave me butterflies. The music is hypnotic and they are in their own world, completely lost in one another. Also this dance has made me forget any other dances exist in period dramas.

Johnny Flynn and Anya's chemistry is so brilliant that I wonder how'd they do in a modern love story of some kind.

[juliette_lummm]

His face when she says "with you" is priceless 😁
