Don’t think I have a favourite Jane but Timothy Dalton is definitely my favourite Rochester. He played him with such a twinkle in his eyes. I have just watched it again recently…it is by far my favourite version.

@@granny58Not my favourite, either. I actually think she ruined the whole series with her meek rendition of Jane (probably the director's intention). She really cannot keep up with Dalton who's simply marvelous
3:49 I really love how Zelah delivered that line because it sounded so pleasing yet quite melancholic (she expected that Mr. Rochester will never love her in return at that time). Whenever I read that in the novel, I imagine it's based on Zelah's voice.
@@famillepillon7447 Ciaran Hinds portrays Rochester as a loud, brash, seemingly drunken, abusive bully. From what I understand, he did a much better portrayal in an earlier radio adaptation, which leads me to believe that it was the Director's fault. Ugh!
@@famillepillon7447 umm respectfully disagree. While Ciaran hinds is not actually bad actor but his portrayal of Rochester was very abusive especially in " i must leave you scene" where he just shouts at Jane, throws her luggage and drags her downstairs.
I have to say that while Michael Fassbender and Toby Stephens definitely had their strong points when it comes to portraying Rochester, Timothy Dalton will in my opinion always be the one who came closest to embodying the character that Miss Bronte describes in her book...right down to the dark hair and saturnine countenance and rather frosty, sometimes abrupt manner.
OreadNYC--You'd enjoy his performance as Rhett Butler in "Scarlett", the series adapted from Alexandra Ripley's novel of the same name (the story of Scarlett and Rhett AFTER the "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a d*mn" line).
I know they have to use the "Do find me handsome?" "No, sir" line but when you're saying it to Timothy Dalton or Michael Fassbender it's quite ridiculous and has me rolling with laughter
@@mheartshape6817 Ultimately true of course, but I've never heard a single woman (or man for that matter) ever say that Dalton wasn't handsome. Thinking of James Bonds, I've heard a surprising number of women call Daniel Craig, on the other hand, just plain "ugly" 😕
I love it, too, but really, they should have removed all references to his looks. It's just laughable to have them discuss how ugly Rochester is, when he's played by Timothy Dalton...
@WakinTheDeadFan Yeah I don't get it meself-he's gotta be one of the ugliest-looking men around!(🤣-too funny!)."Step right up ladeez and gentlemen-come and see the world's first hideous stunner!".😱🤪
Rochester...dude...just give Blanche Ingram her walking papers...& propose to Jane. Her winsome little smile is more resplendent than all of Blanche's vain charms.
very interesting and raffiniert is here, that Rochester is drawing in the nature, deviating from the novel, waiting for her return on her way, knowing that she would come by feet. So he takes over her favorite hobby painting, to be near to her in her absence, by longing for her. And he is drawing her now, to have an image of her, lacking a Handycam to make secretly a photo of her. He tears the prior drawing of the dead treeroot, but hides and ensures his painting of Jane under the character pad for his own. 😂 And he is dressed by a coat in her hair colour.
Because it's ovious , he wears same outfit with a black tie after she left him. T It's called mirroring the missed partner. Even cats do this. and after a complete analysis last 2 years also clear. @@2_limmas_768
I always wonder what Rochester is sketching in this scene. At first, it seems like the landscape, and then he keeps glancing up at Jane like he's sketching her. Idk.
He doesn't seem to be writing, judging from his hand movements, and the sound...And the way he tells Jane to "stand still" then looks down at his pad is peculiar..
Yep- the filmmakers are clearly intimating that whatever he is doing before - he stops & changes pages. It is a sweet lost opportunity that she doesn't reach down to see it. Or ask nicely- since he saw her sketches when they first met. Wonder how he would have reacted or explained it away. "Oh i just put you in the foreground to emphasize the tree." The only 'coming back to Thornfield' scene i like better is Ciaran Hinds up on the wall. Just casually hanging out up on the battlements, being 7' tall but invisible, quite obviously watching for her. Then they proceed to have the most ridiculous conversation about writing letters to the dog. I always thought he should have written her a letter- supposedly from the dog saying, "I woof you. -Pilot."
"Wherever you are is my home... my only home." Is not enough confession of love for him to act on? Is he waiting for a gold-engraved calling card? It took him TWO WEEKS after that to decide to wiggle her into declaring herself further before he could propose! At least in the Ciaran Hinds version, he takes her aside inmediately after the 'return' scene.
The omission of his reference to her return-"to steal into the vicinage of your home"-refering to Thornfield as her home and the implication he would be grievously affected if she'd forgotten him-"Absent from me a whole month, and forgetting me quite, I'll be sworn"is somewhat of a flaw.
This is such a great version, the most similar to the book, for sure. But I did miss the part where he states that Thornfield is her home, it's so touching.

You can't ever take away from me that now I know Mr. Rochester was biracial and Jane's cousin also did heroin and joined the navy because they were wealthy. And Jane had a boarding school paid for her. And Adele lived off Mr. Rochester and her lover who she had children with her whole life when her mother cut her off her own grandfather in France.
That's one reason why we have The Slave Act today too. And Right to Vote hahaha Mad Bertha was black, insane and alcoholic and kept in her own home. Not a mental asylum. I can give up oranges. And eat apples she thinks. Mad Bertha knows how to make Cider if she wants to believe me. And she's not a Prostitute either.

totally agree

Great baritone.

He is channeling his innermost Patrick Stewart plus 30 years of utmost posh theatre!
My ovaries would ignite.

But in the book it is mentioned that 2 weeks passed

It is rushed then.
