Jane Eyre Video

Although Jane says in the movie that she hates living in Gateshead, the movie only explains how much she abhors her aunt and nothing of her spite for her cruel cousin John. The movie is also very limited on the friendly connection between Jane and Helen -- as well as Ms. Temple. I thought the role of Adele was more on the spot than most of the other characters. She was always cheerful and playful. When I envisioned Blanche Ingram from the book, I saw her a very beautiful and young woman, but in the movie she does not fit the character I imagined -- she was not as beautiful. I was disappointed mostly in the fact that they did not include the gypsy scene. Another thing I noticed was that one of St. John's sister's, Mary, was never introduced.
