What a classy, smart and funny lady. And a hell of an actress!

I have no clue how this movie wound up in my feed but maybe because I usually like romantic comedies. But I am a widow under 50 that was married to my first boyfriend for 27 years and I am EXTREMELY conservative. I absolutely LOVED and NEEDED this movie. Thank you so much to everyone who made this. THANK YOU! It was beautiful in EVERY sense.

I love Emma Thompson. She never changes her personality no matter where she is, she loves to have fun and tells it like it is 🤣

Emma Thompson is and will always be the Best of British. Completely bonkers and wonderfully talented. Good to see her representing us Brits

Greatest entrance on Colbert ever? Emma is a rockstar.

[Rebel_AF]

Their chemistry is AWESOME. Every interview between them just gets better, like they're old friends.

That entrance truly embodied the adage, "Dance like no one is looking"... Beautiful!

Emma is pure treasure, what a career, thank you Steven💞

[swisskiwi]

Wonderful woman, wonderful actress! Love her in all of her films!

[prestuvius]

I’m glad she called out the audience for laughing when she mentioned her age. We Americans are so weird.

[deandenise]

I love her! She has so many amazing things that she has written, directed or acted in that have just given me Joy!

[DevineFilm]

Stephen is absolutely correct, this movie is unlike anything else I've seen! Both Emma and Daryl are phenomenal, and as someone who has carried a lot of shame about my body and sex in general, I'm so grateful this film was made. Highly recommend and have no doubt we'll be seeing a lot more of Daryl 🙌

Incredibly agile, talented, joyful and incandescent Emma. Wonderful actress and human.

Stephen and Emma are (to me) like EVERYTHING together. They’re so much fun and I loved every single interview of him with Emma. So I’m really glad that you made this new video. Thank you ! 😄🫶🏻

That entrance must be the number 1 best entrance by a guest on the Late Show. So amazing.

When I grow up to be 62, I want to be like Emma Thompson. She's a tremendous woman.

Emma Thompson has always been my Platonic Ideal of a mate: very beautiful, very intelligent, very funny, very silly, very thoughtful, very compassionate. Time to rewatch Much Ado About Nothing.
