Review of Jane Eyre (2011) by Michael H — 16 Dec 2011
An exceedingly good cast with beautiful-but-not-too-beautiful cinematography and a gripping telling of the story make this one of the best of the many cinematic attempts at this novel. Mia Wasikowska is expectedly brilliant. The occasional too-modern sounding phrasing or delivery are really the only flaws.
The cinematography captures a believable look of light coming from limited light sources (candles, lanterns, sunlight through windows) rather than flooding the interior with a wash of light to make filming easier.
