You are a guy but you love Jane Eyre? As a French guy appreciating Jane Eyre's Bronte a lot I am surprised in 2019 there still are sexist remarks as such! I didn't know all people loving these kind of novels are just women, so they remain in a secluded group and gather in lesbians?
I know they have to use the "Do you find me handsome?" "No, sir" line but when you're saying it to Michael Fassbender it has me rolling with laughter or thinking she is the one who is blind My favourite adaptation and he is brilliant as Rochester
Yes, he is also one of my favorite Rochesters...But that's a general tendency in movie adaptations to cast characters more handsome than they are made out to be in the book. And Rochester is no exception...Rochester is not meant to be tall and slender; he's meant to be broad and stocky and not tall. The only actor cast in the role who also remotely looked it was Orson Welles, even though he was at least fifteen years too young to play him. But Fassbender here plays Rochester very close to character - you do not have the impression, as with Ciaran Hinds or Toby Stephens, that he feels compelled to ham up the nastiness in order to hide he's really a nice person underneath. I think this version of Jane Eyre is one of the most wisely cast versions besides the Zeffirelli one - and it's got the only St. John Rivers I ever found to be convincing!
I love this version! Both are very similar to what I have pictured... Mia’s voice is so soft and her presence is so calm and gentle, and Michael is as vigorous as I thought Mr Rochester would be. Of course, he is described as “not handsome” but since I saw him through Jane’s eyes I’ve imagined him very charming. Love the gothic elements also! Even their sizes (since Jane was small). I could rewatch it and reread this book forever! Love the intelectual chemistry. The sparks contained and reflected in their eyes or in measured words.. oh my!
To tell the truth, I think she did think he was cute, but to her and not everyone else. Women find different looking men cute, they don’t say it cause it might get laughter by their shallow piers.
LOL. 😆 Yeah... I do like this version, but it has it's problems. I think the director's/producer's vision missed a lot of the richness of the story and character.
Is it only me who's just insanely addicted to Bronte and Jane Austen's creations...Whatsoever they are I'm in love with every book and adaptations of them!!!
No you are not alone . I too am a great fan of them - brilliant writers and brave women ; they have always been a great inspiration to me . I am glad that someone has same opinions like me . Thanks💞💞
" I ought to have replied that it was not easy to give an impromptu answer to a question about appearances" -- "You ought to have replied no such thing" -- I loved that conversation...
Littlehorse Way too attractive. As far as interpretation of the character goes I thought Toby Stephens, Timothy Dalton and the one in the 1973 version were a lot better.
They look plain here. In real life, both actors are quite attractive, but they've been dulled down. If you were to pass them on the streets like this, I doubt most people would notice them for their looks lol.
Do you never laugh, Miss Eyre? Only rarely perhaps. But you’re not naturally austere, any more than I’m naturally vicious. I can see in you the glance of a curious sort of bird through the close set bars of a cage, a vivid, restless captive. Were it but free, it would soar, cloud high. I just f***ing love it. :)
darcyissues if u get a chance, watch “To walk invisible”, it gives you a glimpse into the pressures these sisters lived with and how it pushed them into using their writing skills to simply survive.
"I'm the same plain kind of bird as all the rest with my common tale of woe"...Jane giving Rochester's shit back to him😂😂...I love how they're bantering & playing mind games with each other...
Precisely! And that is how she charmed my English gold out of my English pocket!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂You just gotta love that line. Even though I don't think it was in the book.
“Monsieur, je vous remercie mille fois de votre bonté;” then rising, she added, “C’est comme cela que maman faisait, n’est-ce pas, monsieur?” “Pre-cise-ly!” was the answer; “and, ‘comme cela,’ she charmed my English gold out of my British breeches’ pocket(...)" Personally I find the lack of French discouraging but yes, the phrasing is quite similar. Do you find it out of character? This was one of the first full lenght conversations he held with Jane so maybe he appears a little more bitter than usual . Plus he's very provoquing ..
xtph No, it wasn't out of character. Not at the beginning anyway. He was always short with Adèle. Even later when he became softer. If he had been so abrupt with Jane at the beginning it still wouldn't have been out of character.
Rosey Horsegirl just so. Well the quote made an impression on me that's for sure, so I haven't forgotten about it all these years. So much for the man who has his wife hidden in the attic. Charming, indeed.
To anyone complaining about Mia being too pretty for this role: I don't think she would be considered all too pretty according to early 19th century standards though. She looks pale, frail and small; compare these features to how Blanche Ingram is described in the book: dark-haired and tanned skin like a Spaniard. These features were rare in 19th century England and therefore considered attractive. Anyway, the most important thing about Jane's appearance is an "otherwordly" quality and Mia nails that. Edit: I think both protagonists were brilliantly casted. My problem with this particular adaptation is that important parts of the story were filmed and then edited out. The film failed to establish a special connection between them. It felt rushed.
Lol she would’ve been considered a great beauty by the standards of the 19th century. Mia is pretty for even today’s standards, People were way uglier back then. In fact if you had all your teeth, and your features were relatively symmetrical you would be considered pretty. And English aristocrats were also notoriously ugly (on average) out of all the European nobles and royals, you can even see that from the paintings. The good news is that neither Mia nor Micheal are considered “big Hollywood hotties” by hollywood standard. They are both average by Hollywood standards. But it really doesn’t matter, it’s the acting that’s important anyways. For me Mia is the quintessential Jane Eyre. The depth she adds to this character with so few words spoken is nothing short of artistic genius. Michael Fassbender is always great in everything he does even if he’s not the best Mr. Rochester. But Mia clearly is the star here. Her performance always stuck to my head through and through, you just FEEL her character like no other, you really truly feel the spirit of Jane Eyre. Whereas in all the other version it’s just female porn with the constant swooning over Mr. Rochester who actually really loves Jane Eyre but he acts otherwise most of the time and all the intrigues surrounding that. And I find that very shallow. In this version it’s Jane Eyre and what she represents as a strong willed human being that gets me, the romance is really a half tragedy, just as Bronte intended. Not to mention for once she actually looks 18 not 30.
Texas RN True. I always thought lookwise, the 1996 version of Jane had it right like I thought in the book. Mia's looks are far too aesthetically pleasing if you just look at the era they're in and the standards of beauty. She had that classical beauty looks like those you'd see in those classical paintings.
There are tears in her eyes when he goes on about getting pleasure and what kind does he seek. Is it that she is really a bit afraid but toughefenes up so he could see that she won't be an easy prey.
How is it that I have never noticed this before even though I've loved this story for over thirty years?? Rochester points out to Jane that he has all his limbs and features...BUT at the end of the novel, he has lost both an eye and a hand. Boys and girls, can you say "foreshadowing"...??
@ItzJustEllie The voice to which you refer is an internal rather than external one...the voice of Jane's own conscience. Bronte obviously intended this as a reference to the passage in the New Testament which says "And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out and cast it from thee; for it is profitable to thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into Hell." (Matthew 5:29) especially since this verse is part of a larger admonition against adultery. The verse is not necessarily intended to be interpreted literally, of course(!) but rather as a directive to Christians to separate themselves from anyone who tempts them to commit adultery. Jane acknowledges that she must remove herself from Rochester and Thornfield in order to eliminate any possibility that she might succumb to temptation even if only in her mind and heart. I cannot recall off the top of my head which eye and hand Rochester loses...but in a sense, he sacrifices both in an attempt to save Bertha and thereby his marriage in spite of the fact that he regards her as a burden and a torment. In so doing, it could be argued that he avoids the flames of Hell symbolized by the fire which destroys Thornfield.
Veronica Gunnarsson Which is a shame because in this version that part of what she said isn't believable. Michael is way too attractive. Should've gone to someone not too easy on the eyes to play him.
ahahahaha but I am glad in the end he really accepts that it was punishment from God for all the past he has done. Sleeping with mistresses and trying to deceive Jane into the marriage. Rochester is a victim as well of course because he was tricked into the marriage with his first wife. But then he is also a huge sinner
El manejo del claro oscuro es absolutamente espectacular!!! Las luces en el rostro de ambos, sobre todo en el de Jane. This movie is a master piece. Please, I want to see all. Thank you so much.
She hasn't a clue that what/who he is referring to is "her"......"if the pleasure I was seeking was sweet and fresh, if it was an inspiration, if it wore the robes of angel of light......what then?"
Only one problem, and it's a biggie: Rochester asks Jane if she thinks he's handsome and she says NO. I dunno about anyone else but if Michael Fassbender asked ME if I thought he was handsome I would be too stunned by his handsomeness to answer :D. Jane also is supposed to be plain, not beautiful as an angel, and she's supposed to be saucy, not subdued. If you're going to make a movie, in fact one of a series of remakes, read the book and cast accordingly, or just invent a new period romance. Best Rochester EVAH: George C. Scott!
Her answer charms him. Most women would suck up to Rochester and give very plain, transparent answers. She's speaking freely, and that's what attracts him to her
I loved the movie overall but I think the ending was too rushed and that's a pity. Cause in the book the last chapters were wonderfully described , intriguing and captivating. That's why I am disappointed by the ending that came too fast. But yes beautifully made overall.
They never got the right male actor for the role of Mr. Rochester. None of these men are the Charlotte Brontes’ Rochester that she penned. First they were heftier big men almost like a Beauty and the Beast story. Bronte wrote him as a powerful man, bossy, insensitive, angry at his life and circumstances. He was not particularly good looking, but his wealth made up for his shortcomings. Just like Jane, totally the opposite, poor, and plain but a sincerity of manner and innocence that made her beautiful. You cannot capture that in a movie. However the female roles are often spot on. But they won’t take a chance on an actor that truly resembles the book. I think maybe Christian Bale fattened up to look like Orsen Wells might hv been a better choice.
Love the fact he fell in love instantly and everyone else the servants in the book see it lol how madly in love he is with her he practically stalking her one stage in the book 😂😂😂🤣❤❤❤❤❤❤
I like this version very much and think the acting is great! This Jane Eyre portrays the charter well but I think Rochester could have had a little more emotion. None other surpasses the 1983 with my man Timothy Dalton!!
I've watched the adaptation with Samantha Morton and Ciaran Hinds and the second day watched this one. While I enjoyed the former at the beginning, in comparison with the 2011 version, it feels silly, exaggerated, too light and pretty trite, to be honest. This one, however is exactly as it should be. More realistic, gloomy, dark and sad. Plus Fassbender and Wasikowska are exquisite.
@@sandavijithminirathnayake7033 yes he was perfect for the part, but then they chose black actor for the part. Tbh I just don't enjoy any version of wuthering heights, as I am not much fond of this novel, but still I love soundtracks of both 1970 and 1992 versions of wuthering heights.❤️💕🎶🎵🎶
@@cellowali2865 Just read the IMDb trivia and found out Natalie Portman and Michael Fassbender were originally cast as Heathcliff and Cathy , but the newly hired director wanted different actors . Honestly , what was she thinking ? 😁 Those two were just the best options to portray wild and vigorous Gothic couple . ( Natalie's portrayal of slow decent to madness in Black Swan was awesome ) Such a wasted opportunity .
@@sandavijithminirathnayake7033 I read that she wanted someone who looks like normal guy, like not a Hollywood male beauty, I mean I have only seen five something version of wuthering heights, 1939,1970,1992,2009 and some parts of 2011. I was unable to finish all these versions, somehow sat through 1970 and 1992 adaptations because of lead actors for Heathcliff and lovely soundtracks 🎶. Anyways I rather prefer Jane Eyre. Have you watched all the versions of Jane Eyre?? Who is your favourite actor for Rochester??
I think they leave it a mystery on purpose, but I lean towards she is not, but it shows that he is truly a good person. He supports her even though he thinks she is not his, or on the small chance that she could be. A man of his status in those times could have easily abandoned a child.
Best Jane, Charlotte Gainsbourg. What a shame they couldn't have worked together! Susannah York, like Joan Fontaine, was too movie-star pretty, and William Hurt I just don't think much of as an actor. Back in the day I could have seen John Malkovich as Rochester and Cate Blanchett as Jane!
I don't know...I thought they made Charlotte plain enough but she is so tall and statuesque. We all know Jane is suppose to be very petite. I thought Mia did a great job...and even though Ruth is rather tall herself I thought her grasp on Jane's personality was pretty good.
Adele's mother told him he was the father but he didn't believe it for all the serious reasons like "do you find something of me in this shallow creature?" smth. In his defense she was rather promiscuous so the father could have been a number of other gentlemen. When her mother abandoned her he took pity of the child and took her with him.
she told him he was the father but he assumes that is false as she looks nothing like him, however he pities the kid and takes care of her as she has no one else. the mother was caught with another man, after all.
@@edith7344 he wasnt mean to her? What about when he brought all his guest to the house and forced her to watch him court one of them while they were all rude to her. Calling her stupid and such. When I read the book I wondered why he was so mean to her, I understand now having read the whole book. But he was mean to her.
Any cherik shippers here? Look the contradiction, Micheal plays Rochester-while James played Tom (Jane Austen's lover, also Rochester was inspired by Tom lafroy)
Toby Stephens is Mr. Rochester! Hard to even watch this scene to be honest. It just doesn’t feel right, the connection isn’t there between these two actors.
Unity So interesting how people have totally different perspectives because I love their connection in this film. Feels very real and understated to me
@@gee2541 yup it's interesting to see that people have their own favourite versions to admire. I feel the connection between actors even more natural in 1983 version. And one can't help but listen to Mr. Timothy Dalton forever. There is something magical and mesmerising about his voice and the way he speaks each line. Zelah is equally wonderful and sincere. :-)
I don't think the actress is appreciated enough. She is so natural
@@alexismcguire2457 absolutely true, mate. Check out BBC's J E 2006 version, youll forget this one exists. Therers the best jane for me so far.
I love this version of Jane.
Mia is phenomenal
"I'm not afraid, I've simply no wish to talk nonsense" 🤩🤩🤩👏
Well ,she was kinda intimidated I think but didn't want to admit it.
I'm a guy but I love Jane Eyre. She and Rochester are fascinating. And Bronte's writing is excellent.
I hate how it is considered feminine to enjoy such literature
Why should a guy not love them?
You are a guy but you love Jane Eyre? As a French guy appreciating Jane Eyre's Bronte a lot I am surprised in 2019 there still are sexist remarks as such! I didn't know all people loving these kind of novels are just women, so they remain in a secluded group and gather in lesbians?
@@arthurmead5341 and so what, women never have masculine traits it's true! they are only always feminine
“Do you think me handsome?”
-no, Sir
LOL
i laughed so hard when i first read this in the book
I know they have to use the "Do you find me handsome?" "No, sir" line but when you're saying it to Michael Fassbender it has me rolling with laughter or thinking she is the one who is blind
My favourite adaptation and he is brilliant as Rochester

@ItzJustEllie Yes, but he's more handsome than Orson Welles at any rate.
Michael is so pretty.
Ciarian Hinds, "the king beyond the wall", was a good Rochester cast when it comes to beauty.
We all have looks that please some and displease others. We cant just look handsome or ugly to everyone
I love this version! Both are very similar to what I have pictured... Mia’s voice is so soft and her presence is so calm and gentle, and Michael is as vigorous as I thought Mr Rochester would be.

"Do you never laugh, Miss Eyre?"
"Not in this version, sir"
Hannahpauline lol 2006 was better more natural chemistry
LOL. 😆 Yeah... I do like this version, but it has it's problems. I think the director's/producer's vision missed a lot of the richness of the story and character.
Somwone said in her analysis of Jane Eyres that this girl can't act 😂
😅
That someone was wrong.
Is it only me who's just insanely addicted to Bronte and Jane Austen's creations...Whatsoever they are I'm in love with every book and adaptations of them!!!
@ILoveMycroft Persuasion
Appaddict01 yes!!! Persuasion is by far my favorite novel of all time 😩🖤
No you are not alone . I too am a great fan of them - brilliant writers and brave women ; they have always been a great inspiration to me . I am glad that someone has same opinions like me . Thanks💞💞
I think its because of a hankering to a time of more substance and honour..
I don't like Austen but the Bronte sisters are amazing and revolutionary!
This conversation is very accurate to the book.
Poop Brain But their good looks were making me just slightly disbelieve them when they told each other.
" I ought to have replied
that it was not easy to give an impromptu answer to a question about
appearances" -- "You ought to have replied no such thing" -- I loved that conversation...
Fassbender is a brilliant Rochester, a brilliant actor for that matter.
Littlehorse Way too attractive. As far as interpretation of the character goes I thought Toby Stephens, Timothy Dalton and the one in the 1973 version were a lot better.
He plays the part exceptionally, his looks however don’t fit
But she is pretty...and he is handsome
In the standards of that day they may of not been seen as very attractive. Standards change over time.
Depressed Emo Kid because Hollywood doesn't respect books
Laura Berg no. It was the book. They were described as plain and unattractive. 1997 version is more accurate on that.
They look plain here. In real life, both actors are quite attractive, but they've been dulled down. If you were to pass them on the streets like this, I doubt most people would notice them for their looks lol.
I'm Not Okay And It's Not Alright not really

"She Who likes jane eyre the book, likes all the film adaptations "
I don't like all the version , but i try to find positives in each version. My favourite version is 1983 though. :-)
Fassbenders eyes are riveting
I know! He was perfect for this!
"Do you think me handsome?"
Me: YAZ! 😂
Read the book though she denied she internally agreed
@ItzJustEllie what are you talking about actually I'm half way through the book
What a great piece of acting!!! Love them both.
I love the way he says "Precisely"
Mr Rochester, MAN, WENN I SEE THIS MAN, my heart goes 📈
Love their chemistry.
Notice how she tears up towards the end!!
I thought I was the only one
There are tears in her eyes when he goes on about getting pleasure and what kind does he seek.
Is it that she is really a bit afraid but toughefenes up so he could see that she won't be an easy prey.
"YOU transfix me quite."
i love their voices... i love the wohle movie its just perfect

“come on girl, you should smile more”
1:56 That look, he is so FUCKING IN LOVE 😭
OMG YESSS
This was my favourite part of the book where i have to reread this part again and again.💕
she looking at her competition vicariously through Mr. Rochester's eye's.
Although my favorite is the 1983 version with Timothy Dalton and Zelah Clark. But, I think Mia Wasikowska looks most like Jane Eyre.
She hasn't a clue that what/who he is referring to is "her"......"if the pleasure I was seeking was sweet and fresh, if it was an inspiration, if it wore the robes of angel of light......what then?"
She has no idea,she's way too naive and inexperienced.
“Precisely and that’s how she charmed my English gold from my English bucket”
LOL Mr. Rochester is savage😂

Her answer charms him. Most women would suck up to Rochester and give very plain, transparent answers. She's speaking freely, and that's what attracts him to her
Totally agree. I thought Jane was miscast, and bland in temperament. Nothing like the book.
i prefer Jane more slim than this, she may not beautiful but must be magically attractive. i don't like Mia
What a different and lovely Mr. Rochester. I think I am going to like him best of all.
Fassbender won the plaudits but Mia did the heavy lifting.
A very good version. 2 Fine Actors... 👍
I’ve simply no wish to talk nonsense. What a bold thing to say!
I loved the movie overall but I think the ending was too rushed and that's a pity. Cause in the book the last chapters were wonderfully described , intriguing and captivating. That's why I am disappointed by the ending that came too fast. But yes beautifully made overall.
Yeah I love the film but it should have been longer
That's the guy from x-men,anyway great movie!
I love him.

Best fictional man ever.
They never got the right male actor for the role of Mr. Rochester. None of these men are the Charlotte Brontes’ Rochester that she penned. First they were heftier big men almost like a Beauty and the Beast story. Bronte wrote him as a powerful man, bossy, insensitive, angry at his life and circumstances. He was not particularly good looking, but his wealth made up for his shortcomings. Just like Jane, totally the opposite, poor, and plain but a sincerity of manner and innocence that made her beautiful. You cannot capture that in a movie. However the female roles are often spot on. But they won’t take a chance on an actor that truly resembles the book. I think maybe Christian Bale fattened up to look like Orsen Wells might hv been a better choice.
Ciaran Hinds was facially spot on as Edward Rochester.
0:35 take it away and disembowel it 😂
mesmerizing scene when u think theres no music tog et u disstracted..
“Do you think me handsome?”
Fuck yeah daddy i do
Love the fact he fell in love instantly and everyone else the servants in the book see it lol how madly in love he is with her he practically stalking her one stage in the book 😂😂😂🤣❤❤❤❤❤❤
How dare he refer to "M" (Samantha Bond) as a simpleminded old lady!..this version can kick rocks!
She is dame Judi Dench not moneypenny ' Samantha Bond'
I like this version very much and think the acting is great! This Jane Eyre portrays the charter well but I think Rochester could have had a little more emotion. None other surpasses the 1983 with my man Timothy Dalton!!
I've watched the adaptation with Samantha Morton and Ciaran Hinds and the second day watched this one. While I enjoyed the former at the beginning, in comparison with the 2011 version, it feels silly, exaggerated, too light and pretty trite, to be honest. This one, however is exactly as it should be. More realistic, gloomy, dark and sad. Plus Fassbender and Wasikowska are exquisite.
my thoughts exactly!
Yes 2011 version is far better than 1997 version.
I think they suited the role,
its....michael fassbender...I was not expecting him to pop up here xD
Who else think Fassbender would be perfect for Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights ?
He was actually supposed to be cast as Heathcliff in the 2011 version of wuthering heights, don't know what went wrong. Read this trivia on IMDb.
@@cellowali2865
( In Joey Tribbiani voice ) Why God why ? That's the perfect actor for the role ..
@@sandavijithminirathnayake7033 yes he was perfect for the part, but then they chose black actor for the part. Tbh I just don't enjoy any version of wuthering heights, as I am not much fond of this novel, but still I love soundtracks of both 1970 and 1992 versions of wuthering heights.❤️💕🎶🎵🎶
@@cellowali2865
Just read the IMDb trivia and found out Natalie Portman and Michael Fassbender were originally cast as Heathcliff and Cathy , but the newly hired director wanted different actors . Honestly , what was she thinking ? 😁 Those two were just the best options to portray wild and vigorous Gothic couple . ( Natalie's portrayal of slow decent to madness in Black Swan was awesome ) Such a wasted opportunity .
@@sandavijithminirathnayake7033 I read that she wanted someone who looks like normal guy, like not a Hollywood male beauty, I mean I have only seen five something version of wuthering heights, 1939,1970,1992,2009 and some parts of 2011. I was unable to finish all these versions, somehow sat through 1970 and 1992 adaptations because of lead actors for Heathcliff and lovely soundtracks 🎶. Anyways I rather prefer Jane Eyre. Have you watched all the versions of Jane Eyre?? Who is your favourite actor for Rochester??
Q actor de la hostia...exelente pelicula
I love. 😊 Thank you sir. 😊I have seen it. Xxx
2011 movie with Mia Wasikowska and Michael Fassbender
I still wonder if Adele was Rochesters or not.
supersqueak same, I think she most likely is since Rochester seems like the kind of dude to mess around lol.
supersqueak Same.
I think they leave it a mystery on purpose, but I lean towards she is not, but it shows that he is truly a good person. He supports her even though he thinks she is not his, or on the small chance that she could be. A man of his status in those times could have easily abandoned a child.
supersqueak He said she was not. She lied to him.
supersqueak i recall one of the versions of the book made to movie, in which Jane stated that Adele bore no resemblance to Rochester.
Ella es exelente👏👏👏
Do you find me handsome?
No, sir
Note to film producers: Michael Fassbender is not the correct actor to cast to get this point across.
My favourite scene
Best Jane, Charlotte Gainsbourg. What a shame they couldn't have worked together! Susannah York, like Joan Fontaine, was too movie-star pretty, and William Hurt I just don't think much of as an actor. Back in the day I could have seen John Malkovich as Rochester and Cate Blanchett as Jane!
Best Jane = Ruth Wilson (2005)
Best Jane = Mia
I don't know...I thought they made Charlotte plain enough but she is so tall and statuesque. We all know Jane is suppose to be very petite. I thought Mia did a great job...and even though Ruth is rather tall herself I thought her grasp on Jane's personality was pretty good.
Love the book. Mia IS Jane Eyre - she embodies her, captures her spirit.
+92ninersboy true
The original Dom character, Gray eat your heart out
This is where i am now in the book
MIA is soooooooo pretty
How can Jane not dislike him for being so rude to the Dench character?
What does Rochester mean when he says "If the pleasure I was seeking was sweet and fresh, if it was inspiration..."?
He desires her
He would like to sleep with her.
So i never Laugh too😊please mr. Rochester ...
He described me...Me and Jane are practically the same person.
You guys are funny!
So was Adele his biological daughter from an affair? And that's why he took her in after the mother died? I don't remember if it said in the novel.
IBeMelissa no
Adele's mother told him he was the father but he didn't believe it for all the serious reasons like "do you find something of me in this shallow creature?" smth. In his defense she was rather promiscuous so the father could have been a number of other gentlemen. When her mother abandoned her he took pity of the child and took her with him.
she told him he was the father but he assumes that is false as she looks nothing like him, however he pities the kid and takes care of her as she has no one else. the mother was caught with another man, after all.
Ah,that word humbug,I didn't know it existed in English.
Do you think me handsome?
No sir, you hot as fuck
Micheal Fassbender 😘😘😘
Where can I watch this movie online?
Link of the fullmovie anyone? ??
Why cant men talk like this anymore
Have you ever played hit game “among us”?
Can someone say if this version is on RUclips. I've only seen clips of it.
Where can i watch full???please....
Did this scen for my English UASB
honestly I don't remember him being this mean in the book... Was he this mean?
Tae Tae He was saucy and at times rude... never truly mean, though. He just loved to tease Jane and he loved it when she teased him, too.
YES he's a dick
Tae Tae , watch Jane Eyre (1996)..I believe that one is captivating..
Yes!
@@edith7344 he wasnt mean to her? What about when he brought all his guest to the house and forced her to watch him court one of them while they were all rude to her. Calling her stupid and such. When I read the book I wondered why he was so mean to her, I understand now having read the whole book. But he was mean to her.
Any cherik shippers here?
Look the contradiction, Micheal plays Rochester-while James played Tom (Jane Austen's lover, also Rochester was inspired by Tom lafroy)
He is so arrogant and rude saying simple minded old ladies
2011版的男主角帅
What is this back-asswards series of clips? THIS ISN'T A MOVIE.
1:30
3:36
4:01
She looks like a lady from a painting but I don't know whictch one.
Lady with Ermine by DaVinci.
@@portishphonic Yes,that's the one. Thank you !
Toby Stephens is Mr. Rochester! Hard to even watch this scene to be honest. It just doesn’t feel right, the connection isn’t there between these two actors.
Unity So interesting how people have totally different perspectives because I love their connection in this film. Feels very real and understated to me
@@gee2541 yup it's interesting to see that people have their own favourite versions to admire. I feel the connection between actors even more natural in 1983 version. And one can't help but listen to Mr. Timothy Dalton forever. There is something magical and mesmerising about his voice and the way he speaks each line. Zelah is equally wonderful and sincere. :-)
Ditsa Shihurkar I’ve never seen that one! I’ve read lots of people enjoy it though so I’ll have to watch it sometime :)
