I was stuck comparing it to the book. I tried hard to fight that, but did not succeed. The compliments I have for it are:
-Very pretty -Loved the sets -Actors were great
Other than that, the 06 version beats the tar out of 2011! They had more time, yes, but even accounting for that. Every scene I was looking forward to was a let down. Like my favorite, the meeting on the road. I was so hoping to have it more misty and scary and maybe a gray dog lurking in the brush, but no. And the rest of the scene was not as good as 06. I do give them kudos for mentioning the legend of that dog thing (forgot the name) and for Rochester saying the line about waiting for her people, but it still wasn't even enough to save it for me.
Oh, and why didn't they show Rochester trying to save Bertha? The house burning? They've been doing flash backs the whole time but not for that? Must have ran out of time :/
BUT anyway, I'll stop and maybe go in to detail more on my journal. Things of been busy lately. Maybe tomorrow?
I'm hoping to watch the deleted scenes some time this week. My attention has been snatched by reading The Hunger Games at night, which is my normal DVD time.
