Michelle Williams on Charlotte Brontë

Nylon Magazine (December/January 2006-2007) publishes an interview with Michelle Williams, Charlotte Brontë in Angela Workman's upcoming biopic Brontë. We don't know when the interview took place. The project may still have been in its early stages because Ms Williams doesn't seem so sure about her role in the production.

(...) and she's currently mulling over a chance to play Charlotte Brontë, though when asked about it, she responds as only a true bookworm would. "There is hardly a person on earth that I would rather play: I just don't know if it should be done. Some people are so dear and loom so large in people's imaginations and hearts that maybe it's just better left alone. I don't know, I'd like to maybe just play her in my living room or something."

The now traditional review of The Thirteenth Tale mentioning Jane Eyre, of course:

A mysterious fire, an abandoned infant, a fainting spell on the moors and a clue literally torn from "Jane Eyre" all figure into the solution of the puzzle that is Vida Winter's life. Depending on how you interpret "The Thirteenth Tale," there's even a ghost or two, justifying the novel's inclusion in this column. Setterfield breathes new life into these gothic cliches and delivers a thoroughly engaging novel that both slyly sends up and respectfully celebrates old-fashioned storytelling.

If you want to continue reading El Bibliodoro take on Paula Rego and Jane Eyre, the second part is now online (it's still a work in progress with some original drawings by the poster himself).
