PRESS RELEASE:

Jane Austen fans who can't seem to get enough of the 'Complete Jane Austen' series can enjoy an encore presentation on KUED-Channel 7 Sunday, March 23, at 8 p.m., of Austen's "Emma." Kate Beckinsale (The Aviator) stars in the title role as the tireless matchmaker who professes no interest in matrimony for herself, only for her orphaned protégée, Harriet Smith (Samantha Morton).

Emma Woodhouse has a penchant for matchmaking, despite her imperfect success rate. Curiously, as Emma is forcing introductions, she seems entirely disinterested in finding a match for herself. She does feel a twinge of interest in Frank Churchill, (Raymond Coulthard) and a brotherly regard for Mr. Knightley (Mark Strong).

When Jane Fairfax (Olivia Williams) enters the scene with a certain air of mystery, intrigue gets layered into Jane Austen's tale of misconstrued romances.
