[@shemali5442]

Emma Thompson is an authentic woman, screenwriter, actress who should lead the movement where love should be at the forefront of how we live, work and interact with each other, I’ll happily help 🥰💗

[@mamawfrancy]

I love her mojo, positive energy, & great sense of humor & self... she's the real deal. I've watched Nanny McPhee's many times.. my fav & granddaughter's too. ;)

[@henriettahenson]

Kids do like long words... On holding my forehead my 3 year old granddaughter said "" granny would you like a PARACETAMOL... so funny,,, a huge word coming from a tiny tot 😂just love EMMA 💕

[@plzsavethebeez743]

*WORDS OF ADVICE TO LIVE BY: Don't make love by the garden gate. Love is blind but the neighbors ain't!*

[@soyzworldful]

I think you are over-tired 🤣🤣🤣

[@victoriamc.groggan3777]

Love her she’s brilliant 🤗🤗💕💕🍀

[@LadyBug1967]

Watching Emma again and again over the years it makes me so sad that in America we don't create stars ☀️✨⭐💥🌟 like this or we don't allow women like this to become Stars. Very sad

[@JustAThought155]

Maybe the tears represent the spheres they surround themselves in. Emma’s words are shared wisdom many live by. However, they are priceless to these ladies because the platform in which we are watching this segment fails to exercise such wisdom in every venue it reports: i.e., report on love found in government and civil society not all the misery found in both; continue are start to show various versions of human beings and not a manufactured mannequin version of people, especially ladies. The little things make a difference, really.

[@elizabethdelong6431]

I want that pink blouse!!!!’

[@markw1413]

It's good she doesn't worry about her size.

[@ritamarozke]

E.T. is the f******* best

[@harrisonknights8169]

I adore Emma, and I agree with everything, but she isn’t saying anything revolutionary- so it concerns me that these women are so moved by this. Why is this notion of love and aging not being reinforced more readily?

[@eastwestview]

Well, that truly is the $64,000 question, isn’t it? I think if we speak to anyone identifying as female, we will hear from them not only the same question you’re asking, but the pain of still living with the reality that raises it. Frustrating, maddening, sad, hence the tears.

[@harrisonknights8169]

@@eastwestview absolutely- gosh we have a long way to go x

[@janeflannery8757]

Yes, I think they are over-tired (and over-tiresome too). Smultz.

[@plzsavethebeez743]

Maybe go back to watching the "View"!

[@emzp88]

Why are they crying so much?

[@stargazer5073]

Emma is so beautiful, why do movies make her look so ugly?????

[@Bethi4WFH]

I’ll let you into a secret………..she is an actress, playing many parts! 😊

[@ichungehorsam]

👹👿😡

[@davidneeson8384]

That younger one is way too loud and imposing.

[@plzsavethebeez743]

You mean President Bushes daughter? She gets excited, so "Yes" louder! She is very intelligent and sweet!

[@janeflannery8757]

..."and they'd be like..., and they're like... ", ah jeez, American English leaves MUUUUUCHf to be desired! Scroll on sweet mouse...

[@peterwong2962]

As a an actress, I have always found Emma Thompson hugely unwatchable. Now Audrey Hapburn, wow.
