Review of Jane Eyre (2011) by Spangle — 05 Mar 2016
Beautiful. Honestly, my review could end there. Jane Eyre is a strikingly beautiful film in every single asset. Mia Wasikowska is both elegant and assured in this adaptation of Jane Eyre. Michael Fassbender is fanatstic, as are Judi Dench and Jamie Bell.
The script from Moira Buffini is gorgeously written and simply poetic in every facet possible. The mise en scene is visual splendor defined and is deliciously captured by cinematographer Adriano Goldman.
Dairo Marianelli's score is the pièce de résistance for the film as the score perfectly accents the beauty on the screen perfectly. Jane Eyre is a strikingly beautiful film that very well take away your breath at times, as it did mine.
A feast for the eyes, the narrative elements of the film are strong and faithful to the source and entirely engaging. The direction from Cary Fukunaga is fantastic, resulting in a well-paced and tight film.
Overall, Jane Eyre deserves praise largely for its visual elements, but the rest of the film is also quite strong, resulting in a fantastic and entirely romantic experience.
