June 24, 2011: I know it's difficult to do justice to a great book when its translated to film but this was the worst I've ever seen. I'm sorry I wasted my money. Much of the book was left out and what was included was often changed enough to make it barely recognizable. This one goes in the garbage.

A BBC miniseries that aired in 11 half-hour episodes during 1983, this sumptuous adaptation of Charlotte Brontë ’s famous gothic romance achieved a level of fidelity unmatched by earlier (and later) versions. In part this was due to the total running time, which allowed for greater emphasis on scenes that were either truncated or omitted in other screen incarnations of Jane Eyre . But the credit must also go to screenwriter Alexander Baron and director Julian Amyes, whose faithfulness to the original...

Charlotte Bronte's moving story of the improbable love between a young governess and her mysterious and tragic employer is one of the towering classics of English literature.

After a wretched childhood as an orphan, Jane Eyre arrives at Thornfield Hall to take over her duties as the governess. She soon falls in love with the brooding owner of Thornfield...

September 27, 2010: Do not buy this! There are so many reasons why; the picture quality and sound is atrotious, the length is far too short for the Bronte novel to be accurately translated, the two leads have no chemistry and because of the length you miss out on the growing love between the two. It just jumps into everything and a lot of things get jumbled (not sure if thats an actual word). My point is: Do NOT buy this movie! Find it in a library or rent it on netflix. There are better...

September 27, 2010: This is my least favorite film version of Jane Eyre but with that said I still enjoyed watching it. It is one of the oldest fim adaptations of Jane Eyre and is black and white and from 1934 and directed by William Christy Cabanne and stars Virginia Bruce as Jane Eyre and Colin Clive as Edward Rochester. Yes this movie takes liberties with the book. Jane is a tall beautiful blonde and Adele is a clutzy ditz with an annoying giggle and Young Jane Eyre comes across as...
