Beaucoup trop rapide… les événements s’enchaînent sans qu’on ai le temps de s’attacher aux personnages ou aux lieux .. (je suis déçu 😡)

no me encantó como adaptación de jane eyre :( se siente apresurada, rochester no tiene la rigidez que luego hace tan disfrutable su ternura, y hay NULA química entre jane y él. anna paquin de mini jane es tan impresionante en su momentito que hace que toda la película valga la pena solo por ella
tal vez es irrelevante pero el diseño de set y vestuario también me dio para abajo y puede ser que por eso no me haya encantado tampoco voy a fingir que hay mucha objetividad en mi asimilación

I hope it's the adaptation that sucks. Honestly, the only very interesting part is the first one, where Jane is still a kid. Probably thanks to Anna Paquin, who is an amazing actress, that made the character very brilliant. Aside from that, i found the story pretty boring. In additon to Edward being a complete idiot, his and Jane's actors had no chemistry. I should read the book (or at least watch another adaptation) to understand what Jane found in him. I don't want to judge the original story, but by only watching this I have to say that the only interesting storyline was the one about her and Helen. The rest just provided me a sequence of yawns
