Jane Eyre 2011 tally: 4

[ringsandcoffee]

Three times in the theater, and now once at home. spally, so glad you got to see it. holbytla, you've got to see it! Oh, and somehow my excitement last night led me to put in Our Mutual Friend. No idea how that movie relates to Jane Eyre.

-There's 7 or 8 deleted scenes on the dvd. Some I am glad they didn't include in the finished movie.
-Me being the book nerd, I kept picking out direct quotes and doing silent cheers upon hearing them.
-I watched the ending 3 times in a row. I won't spoil anything by describing it, but I must say it gave me chills. The second time, I turned on the subtitles, and then totally missed them. Usually subtitles draw my eyes to themselves, but not in this moment.

Now, I wait for the icons to start rolling in.

*flail* yay you liked it!

Yes, '06 does beat the tar out of '11. BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Watch it again. I swear, it will be different when you are able to set aside the book and/or the '06 comparisons. Also, the super short scenes that we wish were longer (or more emotional) become more enjoyable over time. I watched it a 5th time with a friend who had not seen it yet, and I was still enthralled.

Oh, 5th time watching and the bird suddenly flying at her STILL makes me jump.

I'm looking forward to rewatching it. With something like this it's hard to take it in for what actually it is and not what you're hoping it will be. 2nd watch, I'll know what to expect.

It is a very jumpy movie! The fireplace part was neat.
