childhood dream

I read "Jane Eyre" a long time ago, and at that time I devoured my books. Now I only vaguely remember part of the plot, a love story, a growth story, a redemption story. Jane Eyre's life is unfortunate, her growth has been in an embarrassing situation, but she is also lucky to meet good teachers and friends. Her misfortune is like a fairy tale. She lost her parents, was despised by others, grew up in an orphanage, but was independent and pursued. She was braver and firmer than most people.

A film cannot be as specific as a book, and to interpret a book well, it must be cut and repaired.

Was she afraid when she snuggled up beside her friend and accompany her to die? What was she thinking when she left the orphanage, a place where she spent her youth and part of her youth, and went to the manor alone? Every decision contains great courage, and change is always difficult.

Perhaps it is the knowledge of the plot. When I watch the movie, I am keen to observe their appearance and the design of the scene. Jane Eyre is generous, with a nun's version of holiness. She is a mature young man. She seems to exude a calm temperament no matter where she is. As for Rochester, he wasn't very handsome, but the cast was too vulgar. I thought a person who could resonate with Jane Eyre would have some inner temperament, but he looked like an old hooligan. The words are frivolous, the actions are frivolous, and the people are sloppy.

Because I know the general plot, I have complete logic in my mind about what happened, but when you jump out of the book and read, you find that the plot of the film is too trivial and unbearable.

In short, the film cannot present the novel 100%, and many remakes are not immune to stereotypes.
