Jane Eyre 2006
Apr. 11th, 2009 03:52 pmOh my, this was absolutely wonderful! It was such a fantastic translation of the book, and quite frankly, made me appreciate the story in a whole new way.
The girl they had to play Jane was spot-on. Not only was she a little plain, but she had the pretty severe, solemn, yet extraordinary passion that Jane Eyre possessed.
Mr. Rochester was... RAWR. I've not always been a big Mr. Rochester fan in the past. I thought he was kind of a jerk and didn't get why Jane loved him so. In here, though, he has a charisma that is undeniable, and the restrained manner in which the actor plays Mr. Rochester is a little reminiscent of Mr. Darcy in P&P '95.
The thing that most floored me though, was the undeniable chemistry between Jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester. There is spark any time they share the screen. I suddenly understood why this is considered such a great romance (albeit not an altogether healthy romance).
I very much enjoyed my time watching this fine flick, and I would/will watch again in the future!
And now on to Little Dorrit.
