Title: Not the best version of Jane Eyre
Review: This version of Jane Eyre was not the best. First, I had the distinct impression that George C. Scott played himself. He really did not get the essence of the character that he played.Second, the movie seemed more like a remake of the Orson Welles version than a fresh telling of the story. Many of the elements of this one were clearly taken from the Welles version.Overall, if I had to choose a version of this story, I would probably take the Timothy Dalton version, which although the male lead may not look the part, is the truest version to the novel in terms of acting and atmosphere.This one was ok, but only just.
Is the review positive or negative?
