Jane Eyre (2011)

Cary Joji Fukunaga's adaptation of Jane Eyre is sombre, entertaining and sticks close to the material in the book. (I mean, in comparison with Andrea Arnold's Wuthering Heights this way of making film pales.) It's an adaptation that doesn't take risks: it does what we expect it to. There are the moors, the repressed feelings, the crazy lady in the attic and the strange love btw Jane Eyre and Rochester. What I really appreciated, however, was the casting. Mia Wasikowska, Michael Fassbender and Judi Dench are simply great choices for the roles of the three leading characters.
