Heartwarming / Persuasion (1995)

• When Wentworth quietly helps Anne on to the cart, because he alone has noticed that she's been walking for miles and is exhausted; she's so shocked that he even noticed her that she's discombobulated, and the hand-held camera makes the scene more intimate and lifelike.
• When Anne catches sight of Admiral and Mrs. Croft in Bath, there's a big smile on her face and she immediately runs to greet them. Seeing her actually happy and in the company of people who value her is such a nice thing after an hour of watching her miserable and emotionally neglected by her father and sisters.
• There's something sweet about the sight of Harville standing behind Wentworth when Wentworth interrupts the card party to propose to Anne—brother captains on all battlefields, it seems.
• The look on Captain Wentworth's face when Anne joins him by the captain's wheel in the 1995 film version. Ciarán Hinds conveys volumes with one soft smile — he looks at her as though she's his entire world.
