Title: Utter Disappointment
Review: I had just finished the novel before watching this version of Jane Eyre and I was totally disappointed by the weak attempt to portray its depth in film. It was a thin, papery frame, really, of the events in the novel - it left out SO much and the characters were so terribly under developed. Jane, thoughout the novel, is so delicately molded into a fun, teasing, and brilliant young lady and Mr. Rochester into a passionately devoted man. In the movie, NONE of this took place - Mr. Rochester was too quiet and mean, and Jane was entirely too BORING! She had one tone and one way of acting - portraying absolutely NO DEPTH! Scenes that are supposed to develop their relationship were completely deleted, the ending was rushed, etc, etc. Overall, not good!
