Jane Eyre at Downing Street

The BIFA Awars took place last night. Finally Mia Wasikowska didn't win the best actress award:

[Olivia] Colman [Tyrannosaur] emerged victorious in a field boasting a former Oscar winner, picking up the nod ahead of Tilda Swinton’s eye-catching role in We Need To Talk About Kevin.
She also saw off the challenge from Mia Wasikowska’s outing in Jane Eyre, Rebecca Hall’s haunting role in The Awakening and MyAnna Buring’s turn in Kill List. (Stuart Kemp in The Hollywood Reporter)

The Sydney Morning Herald talks about Australian movies and actors:

Jakarta Globe talks with a former exchange student:

If I could travel back to my past, there are so many things that I wish I could have done differently.
First, I wish that I had not hated math so badly when I was in school. I wish that I read more classic novels like [Jane Austen’s] “Persuasion” and [Charlotte Brontë’s] “Jane Eyre” or philosophy books by people like [Soren] Kierkegaard and [Jean-Paul] Sartre when I was in high school. (Prima Desita)

Moorpark Patch talks about deadlines:

We tell ourselves, “I will not leave the house/library/coffee shop until I have completed this psychological analysis of the characters of Wuthering Heights,” (and yes, I wrote that paper my senior year of high school after being possessed by some crazed demon who thought it would be fun). (Julie Bien)
