Dull?

The Guardian recommends a visit to Moreton Corbet Castle in Shrewsbury for Easter Monday:

This (free entry) English Heritage property is the site of a ruined medieval castle and the shell of an Elizabethan mansion. It's great for hide-and-seek, Easter egg hunts, makes a perfect Camelot and is an ideal backdrop for moody teenagers reading Jane Eyre. (Dundubbinin)

Buffalo News finds similarities between That Woman: The Life of Wallis Simpson, Duchess of Windsor by Anne Sebba and Jane Eyre:

Though many aspects of "That Woman" are interesting, it was this dark subplot, like something out of "Jane Eyre," that stays with you. (Mary Kuntz Goldman)

The Spoof! carries an article about how boring jobs are... with a boring Brontë reference:

Employment has been found to be buttock-clenchingly monotonous, a new study suggests.
Last week many in employment noted that work is as dull as reading a Brontë book; this is in fact one definition of the term. (Will Franklin)

Rebecca Chesney has updated her Brontë Weather Project blog with the finished colour wheels for Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall based on the weather mentions in each novel. Take a look at them.

Vivandlarry gives good reasons why Wuthering Heights 1939 deserves a special DVD/Blu-ray treatment now that Warner Brothers has acquired the Samuel Goldwyn film library. For instance, we didn't know that colour home video footage taken on the set by Wyler himself is preserved:

This footage, it was explained, is a small part of what is housed in the Wyler collection at AMPAS. That means there’s probably plenty more where that came from. AMPAS is one of the best institutions in the world for cataloguing cinematic artifacts–not just the films themselves, but the material generated around them–and they know the importance of preserving Hollywood film history. The amazing thing about LA is that all of these film institutions are located in the same general vicinity, so the people of Warner Bros. need not travel very far to find a chest of treasures to include on a DVD/blu-ray of Wuthering Heights.

Curious Clockwork, A Paperback Life, Herding Cats, The Oliva Reader and Jasper's Headquarter  post about Wuthering Heights; Belladodie is reading The Secret of Charlotte Brontë (1914) by Frederika MacDonald; The Free Folk has made a Jane Eyre doll; boodle3 uploads a nice picture on the way to Brontë Waterfalls; Cineville (in Dutch) compares Wuthering Heights 2011 and the original novel; you can vote for your favourite Jane Eyre adaptation on No net ensnares me.

Finally, a Jane Eyre tattoo, Melissa (who obviously doesn't find Jane Eyre dull) shares her 'I am no bird tattoo' on Contrarywise.
