Jane Eyre (2011)
4/10
Another adaptation... Could have been avoided without any regret
21 August 2020
I honestly don't see what this new adaptation (shall I call it a remake) brings. Past adaptations are far better and Fukunaga does not offer a new vision of the book nor of any character.

It really lines up with current tendency to make remakes with illustrates more a lack of ideas and originality. One of a thousand may be the equal of the original or even better. A handful deserves to be shot as it brings new ideas to the original. The rest brings at most modern special effects or an opportunity to see great actors in famous roles, when it is not a simple downgrade.

This movie fall in my opinion in the last category. Do favor the classic, to begin with Orson Welles'!
