Handsome, clever, and rich—Emma Woodhouse believes herself the perfect matchmaker, but meddling in the lives of her friends proves far more complicated than she imagines. Gwyneth Paltrow stars in this thoughtful and elegant adaptation of Jane Austen’s beloved novel, balancing wit, romance and social observation.

Join us at the Holburne Museum—a setting straight out of Austen’s pages—for this 90s classic, screening in partnership with Film Bath as part of the Jane Austen Festival. Your ticket includes access to the new exhibition Illustrating Austen, marking the 250th anniversary of Austen’s birth. Discover the artists who’ve shaped how we imagine her world—from Regency-era prints to modern interpretations.

When the Dashwood sisters—pragmatic Elinor (Emma Thompson) and impulsive Marianne (Kate Winslet)—are left in reduced circumstances, they must chart a path through love, loss and polite society. Ang Lee’s acclaimed adaptation offers a nuanced, emotionally rich take on Austen’s tale of romance and resilience.

Screened in the refined surroundings of the Holburne Museum, this special event in partnership with FilmBath is part of the Jane Austen Festival. Your ticket includes entry to Illustrating Austen, a new exhibition exploring how artists across the centuries have brought Austen’s characters to life.
