Oscar worthy in every way. Hopefully this one doesn't go un-noticed. It is one of the most ambitious and genre bending films of the year. It's what you would get if you took a Jane Austen novel and adapted it into a gothic world.
Beautifully done and very romantic. I really enjoyed this movie.
If you love English lit and British culture, this is for you.
Jane Eyre is an absolute classic and I enjoy viewing different versions of such a wonderful story. The movie was quite well done and can be measured against the movie version of Sense and Sensability by Emma Thompson. Each time a remake is made the fear is that it will not adequately represent the previous versions which were unarguably great movies.
Always a lovely period film and romance as well. Really enjoyed it.
Liked the movie, although it was a little too buttoned down for my taste - preferred the version from 2006 on PBS - but I really enjoyed how they spliced the film to future and back as this made it interesting and mysterious, even when you knew the story. Definitely worth seeing and very atmospheric.
Did we really need another movie version of Jane Eyre? I can't say, but had to take a look just the same. Everyone was well cast and the atmosphere was suitably grim. I cared what happened to these people and that's a testiment to good story-telling.
love the scenery ann story. witch I could go to London and see the Area where it was made.
Worth seeing as movie is loyal to this great novel!
Loved the book and the movie as well!
