Cranford or Emma?

I never do this (or really cared all that much), but since The King's Speech was up for many awards, I was looking through the nominees for The 68th Annual Golden Globe Awards. Then I noticed under "Best Performance by an Actress in a Mini-Series or a Motion Picture Made for Television", both Romola Garai for Emma (2009) and Judi Dench for Cranford (2007) were nominated.

I gotta say, I'm really stuck! I liked both miniseries. Which do you think should win?

  1. Wow, what a hard choice! It's almost like comparing apples to oranges. Judi Dench's Miss Matty with her sweet, quiet dignity or Romola Garai with her fiesty, playful Emma. I'm a little bit prejudiced, because Emma is one of my favorite stories, but I really liked Cranford, too. I think for me it would have to be a tie! I know they probably don't do that on the Golden Globes. :)

  2. I unfortunately can't offer an opinion since I haven't seen Cranford. But it would take a lot to beat Emma/Romola!

  3. I would have to say Emma. I think she did a really good job. :-)
