Title: Proficient Version of JANE EYRE
Review: George C. Scott is wonderful as Rochester while Susannah York is capable and satisfactory in the title role yet she seems to lack some passion inward or outward. Jack Hawkins is brilliant as the evil headmaster yet the motivations for his hideous nature are left unexplored. This version of JANE EYRE is beautifully photographed and richly textured and very compelling. John William's score is appropriately composed to augment the visuals. In all this is a well intentioned production but seems to lack some of the mysterious and enigmatic qualities of earlier versions, yet it is still very enthralling.
