A new Jane Eyre?

Mar 27, 2011 19:43

I did not know until today that they remade a movie of Jane Eyre... again.

It's playing here in Boston and I am tempted to see it just to find out if what they did with this version.  The trailer says a "bold new vision" or something or other... but... really?  I hope so, because as much as I adore Jane Eyre I've never seen anything spectacularly new done with a film version.  Which... is sad.  Why remake the movie over and over again if it's just the same thing over and over again?

And they always leave out the fortunetelling scene of the book, which is the best scene out of the entire novel D:

Has anyone seen this new version?  Or heard anything about it?

Or know an old version that has the fortunetelling scene in it? :P I've only seen about 3 or 4 versions of Jane Eyre, but none have had that scene and I'm curious to see how it would be done.

Also, I'm thinking this Mr. Rochester might be too handsome for the character... y/n?

Also, who the freak picked the font for this trailer?  It's horrendous.

books, design class ruined me, movies, book to movie?
