Title: Marvellous acting!
Product review: Ciarin Hinds did the best portrayal of Rochester that I have seen...he somehow managed to capture the passion of the character, without making him into a depressed milksop (if you want that kind of thing see the version with William Hurt). In this portrayal Rochester is vigorous and abrupt and changeful but with a deep and tender heart. The movie, while not correct in all the particulars of Bronte's book, somehow manages to capture the spirit of it. The necessary omissions aren't quite so glaring as they are in other versions where character development is totally lacking. On the down side, Jane could have been a little better, but on the whole this a great movie!
