Additional InformationCharlotte Bronte's classic novel of Gothic romance gets the Zeffirelli treatment in this moving adaptation. Orphaned Jane Eyre (Charlotte Gainsbourg) grows into a strong-willed heroine after enduring a miserable childhood (where she's played by Anne Paquin). Things start looking better when she falls in love with the brooding Rochester (William Hurt), lord of the manor where she gets a job as governess. Unfortunately, Rochester's family skeletons threaten to sabotage their happy ending. Director Franco Zeffirelli (HAMLET, OTHELLO, ROMEO AND JULIET) stays faithful to the book while stressing natural characters and landscapes over stylized gloom and mystery, with rewarding results.
