Everywhere I turn there's a new clip from Jane Eyre 2011! I feel like Christmas has come again!
I love all of the clips, but particularly the post-Mason incident one. I also love how the script has managed to incorporate so much of the original dialogue. Brilliant! Why is March 11 still a month away?
Finally a trimmed-and-tucked version, incorporating so much original dialogue! YEEESSS! And I love what they've done with my favorite scene (the first one above). Trimmed, but the emotional truth and the dramatic power of the scene remain.
Sad to think that, as with the 1995 "Persuasion", an independent film company, using public and private funding, could keep the story, the characters, the pretty scenery. Forget Hollywood.
Oh I just can't wait for this. The trailer looks amazing - like other posters have mentioned, there's lots of original dialogue, FINALLY Jane looks plain and little and how I always imagined her to be, and incidents such as the red room and Hay Lane look suitably moody and dramatic. And the music at 0.27 has been stonlen/borrowed from my all-time favourite movie, Suspiria. Now that is a good omen for me!
I don't even know what to say. I've been squealing like a little child in front of my computer. I was excited when the trailer came out and now that they're releasing clips, I absolutely CANNOT wait!! I'm confused though. The scene in the garden, I absolutely LOVE. The scene after the fire was almost everything that I imagined. But the proposal scene...I don't know! They only showed half of it, and towards the end of the clip I was leaning forward in my seat to see what would happen next, but it got off to a rocky start for me. However, I'm only going to look at the positive and say that Fassbender looks like a GREAT Rochester and he is the only actor who nails the VOICE of Rochester that I imagined. Physically, I always thought of a dirtied Richard Armitage. CANT WAIT TO SEE THIS MOVIE!!!

Another, shorter clip was released today, this time starring Mrs. Fairfax! Judi Dench is wonderful, as usual.
