@@anag7307 yeah,but I prefer Ruth and Toby as main actors.🤔Also BBC`S 2006 version is one of the most accurate book portrayals there is. They did great job.
1983 is more authentic to the book, has more episodes, love the characters better, although Mr Rochester is too handsome, I fell madly in love with him🥰
I used to love this version, I still like it but after a rereed of the book I watched for the first time the 1983 version and I love it!!! Although is looks older and it's not in HD but it is so accurate to the story, I think is the most close to Rochester's character that we have.
They should have kept the childhood scenes because they show how Helen helped Jane grow spiritually. Also this would have been the only version that showed Mrs. Reed saying goodnight to Jane to ease her conscience and Jane resisting her hypocrisy as she did in the book.
Purists will complain that this is not cannon with the book. I have seen the more cannon versions, but this captures the essence of the story - the passion - better than any other version I've seen.
I really wish I could find the DVD with all the scenes it is a great movie.. I love the book this is my favorite of all the movies made from the book. Shows Rochester and Janes more competely... AWESOME!!! Thank you
I love all of the deleted scenes except for the scene where she shuts the door on Rochester...I just think that was to over the top and I'm glad they didn't use it in the film series. But when he confesses his love I was close to tears!
Man the scene where Rochester is trying to talk to her and she slams the door on him makes me sort of angry. I mean come on. The biggest day of her life has just been ruined give her a moment of peace Rochester! Lol but that scene cracked me up too.
When I read Jane Eyre, I didn't understand how anyone survived Lowood, they were given some porridge for breakfast, half a piece of bread with black coffee for lunch, supper I can't recall but it wasn't much... It sounded like less than 1000 calories a day, with serious deficiencies.
That would explain her being so little and pale. It's not explicity said in the books, but the way she is described seems as malnourished. Also we now only some survived
That's why so many of them eventually died; but keep in mind that after the typhoid fever broke out, Brocklehurst's "management" was looked into and things improved, so they probably started feeling them better
surely: plus she had a light dress for all the seasons. Lacking calories and vitamins, no wonder many girls died of typhus fever once the infection arrived from the water and food. This so poor life is the same one the Bronte sisters, apart from Emily, lived in Cowan Bridge school: Maria and Elizabeth Bronte died, Chrlotte's and Anne's health was impaired forever
They also cut some scenes from the DVD and digital versions (where episodes last 50 minutes) compared to the original broadcast (57 minute episodes). Here are the scenes cut from the first episode: 1. Jane's emotional conversation with her aunt before Brocklehurst's visit and her being sent to school. 2. A short scene of Jane's lessons with Adele, showing that several months have passed and Jane's subsequent visit to Rochester's empty study, where her attention is drawn to his collections of butterflies and beetles. 3. Immediately after Jane's conversation with Mrs Fairfax about Grace Poole (in the cut version we instantly switch to Jane in bed), the full version features a scene of an outdoor biology lesson from Rochester. In this scene Rochester tells Adele about a rare bird, the description of which makes it clear that he is talking about Jane. Afterwards, Jane and Rochester talk about Adele. Upon returning to the house, Jane notices an ominous painting on the wall. It is only after this that we see Jane in bed.
What the director said at the end about Ruth's looks is so true and that was the first thing I noticed when I watched this series and she appeared. I thought that she was quite beautiful though not in the conventional sense and I couldn't for the life of me figure out why she was cast. I see now that it was for the reason the director stated and for that it is my favourite version.
Nice to see Charity Wakefield as Miss Temple. She'd get her big break two years later in Sense and Sensibility. North and South in 2004, Jane Eyre 2006, and S & S in 2008; heady years for the BBC's period drama department.
I bet when Jane was exiled to Lowood, the siblings turned on each other since they couldn't use her as their scapegoat anymore. I would have loved to know Eliza's story. How did she end up like she is? So cold. Determined to live a life of serving God instead of just marrying a minister, pastor, Father, or whatever they were called back then and living a life serving God that way.
she was no as beautiful as Georgiana therefore she hardly would have a husband: she despised Georgiana for this and devoted herself to religion and practical thing as a way to fix this lack of possibility of wedding. She was anyway as elitist as her family
My favorite 2 deleted scenes were the last of the party leaving (especially Rochester calling for Jane out of nowhere) and Jane closing the door on Rochester (I don't remember that being in the book). I think the way Jane and Rochester doing their last conversation before she leaves on a bed is really weird. I understand a movie tries to keep it fresh by doing it different. I prefer the way they do it in the book better. I like that they have that big conversation with all of the conflict and struggle in the book. Jane, going against her inclination, in that scene to do the right thing proved beyond doubt that she was a heroine.
Jane closing the door on Rochester is not in the book, He wait for her outside in silence. And yes you are right! The scenes where they are in the bed, although it looks so romantic, in the book it's happened in a different context, Jane didn't even let him touch her.
An 1840s constable's uniform from the City of London Police, on display in the City of London Police Museum. The original City of London uniform was blue, to differentiate from the red worn by the army. The collar was high and contained a leather stock to guard against garrotting (strangling with a wire or something similar). This was the most common form of attack against a police officer. These were removed from the uniform by the 1870s.
Can someone tell me, if Jane is so keen on having a true family, and she is so overjoyed to find out that St. John and his sisters are blood relations, then why did she not write to her Uncle John the minute she found out about him from her dying aunt? Especially after she ran away from thornfield, why did she not try to locate her uncle to live with him and to be a loving family?
In the book, Jane writes to let her uncle know she is getting married to Rochester, and he sends the lawyer to stop the wedding with Mason. Then he dies.
if u hv read the novel n watched the episode closely.. she writes to him after she agrees to marry rochester and tells him of her intended marriage...and it is indeed his uncle john who is also in westindies where the mason lives too.. who informs mason to stop the marriage at once.. as far as i ve read
She couldn't decide how to explain the fact that her aunt, Mrs. Reed, had told him that Jane Eyre was dead. To tell him that her aunt had lied - to accuse her of lying in such a serious matter - would have been very disrespectful for the time period. Never mind that this was an aunt who had cast her off: she was dead, and when someone is dead, you do not speak of them ill.
"Jane Eyre's love would have been my best reward. Without it my heart is broken."
.....wow, right in the feels.
Thank you very much... I tried to figure out what he had said in the part(Jane Eyre's love would have been my best reward)... But I couldn't...
i wish there was a 5 hour movie (or more) with ALL of the events in the book XD I am addicted to the book!!
Stella Lee watch the 1983 series, it has 11 chapters and almost all the events.

I feel exactly the same. Only this version meets my expectations. I don't even want to comment on the newest one. It was a huge disappointment.
Alexandra B Ditto on the disappointment with the latest version. I seriously question whether the writers/director actually read the book . . .
nora22000 yeah. Even if he/they did, it was with zero understanding of the author's thoughts.
Bonnie Half-Elven exactly. Well said!
Bonnie Half-Elven well, im more annoyed about Rochester's looks. he is suppoused to be ugly, not that sexy damn!
"You think too much of the love of human beings Jane; you will always be disappointed" wow.
I agree, considering how the reeds and Brocklehurst to hate the wrong people
I hate that they left out the scene of Jane looking at her room! That would have created more empathy for her.
*sighs* Well, of course I have to go and watch the whole series again, now. So much for waking up early. 😜
***** It is sad, but so far this is the only film I've seen him in. However, I shall soon rectify that. :)
Thank you so much for posting these deleted scenes. This is one of my favorite books and this is by far the best movie version that I have ever seen.
Well of course this is the best version. It was directed by a woman, finally.
YES
I just realised that Tara Fitgerals is playing aunt Reed.
In "The Tenant of Winldfell Hall" she and Toby are playing a couple.
My mind is broken.
Ha.ha :')
Perhaps Ruth Wilson will some day play a supporting matron in one of these classics. And Toby will still be the romantic hero. 😂
That is an excellent adaptation and criminally underrated.
What about Ruth Wilson in Luther? I kept waiting for Jane to unalive somebody 🫣

Yes, the young Jane Eyre is Georgie Henley of the Narnia films.
It was how/why I was here, checking that, though I've looked at this series in full.

I would have loved they used the scene of Miss Temple. I love that character!
Is that Charity Wakefield? Why was she cut? I LOVE her so much.
The actress who was Bessie was on HBOs series Rome as the cook and serving slave ,Althea .
Nice to see Charity Wakefield as Miss Temple. She'd get her big break two years later in Sense and Sensibility. North and South in 2004, Jane Eyre 2006, and S & S in 2008; heady years for the BBC's period drama department.
Some rotten guy that Brocklehurst.
He deserved to go to jail once revealed a thief too. He had too many connections and was forced to share his role with more honest people
Sounds like a job for the Metropolitan Policemen.
The Peelers.
Arrest him!
yea, I can't believe they didn't include that :D
There's one very good reason they left out the scene in Jane's room - the dressing table was circa 1940!
I bet when Jane was exiled to Lowood, the siblings turned on each other since they couldn't use her as their scapegoat anymore. I would have loved to know Eliza's story. How did she end up like she is? So cold.

I think Eliza could have been bit autistic - loving rules and order, hardly socializing. If so, monastic life would work for her very well.
me too!! they should have kept that scene one of the things i loved about some of the other jane eyers
I don't understand why they deleted these scenes...

Isn't that the girl from Narnia?

Yes, Georgie Henley
It certainly is.
Oliver Twist wants to run away from the town where the Union Workhouse is.
Same here x

They should have kept the closing of the door scene.
I thought it made rochester look too aggressive, something a lot of portrayals go too far with. I thought the editing was perfectly done.
She was far from plain though.
