The Charm of "Jane Eyre" Lies in having a Firm and Pure Heart

In the afternoon, I finished watching the BBC06 version of "Jane Eyre" in one go. I have never read the original or other versions, but this version left a deep impression on me, reminding me of how I felt when I watched "The True Story of Kirin" before. The foundation of love is our spiritual equality, and then we can give and support each other.

Many people don't like this version because the protagonist looks a little more euphemistic, but this is not an idol drama. The charm of Jane Eyre lies in her seemingly ordinary appearance with a firm and pure heart, just like Mr. Rochester said. Jane Eyre is a witch who can see through people's hearts, all of which stem from her frankness. Jane seems to be a loner, cold-blooded woman, but I think she is a person full of enthusiasm for life, full of energy, and self-confidence, and she has a strong inner tension.

For Jane's childhood friend Helen, the film is a bright spot, although it doesn't cover much. In the beginning, Jane was sent to stand, and Helen secretly gave her an unknown object. Jane looked at the front with confused eyes, not knowing what it was, let alone who had given it. But then Helen was about to die of illness, and Jane had to sleep with her, which shows the firmness of their friendship. Who else but Helen could have eaten Jane? Jane looked at Helen's tombstone with such sadness but firmness that she would always keep this most precious friend deep in her heart.

In the face of her lover, Mr. Rochester, Jane showed her independence, self-esteem, and self-confidence. Jane's charm is that she treats everyone equally. Mr. Rochester had a conversation with Jane in the film, Mr. Rochester asked Jane: "Am I handsome?" Jane said he was not good-looking, and Mr. Rochester asked her: "If I have £20,000, will this give me extra points? ?" Jane said no. She has never paid attention to appearance and power, so she inherited 20,000 pounds but gave it to her siblings, and she loved Rochester because he treated her equally. When Mr. Rochester asked Jane back, "Why do you need my permission to read the book here?", I think Rochester had a different change in Jane's heart.

Jane's sincerity is not only because she can treat others sincerely, she can also face her feelings more sincerely. Although she was timid and skeptical about her relationship with Mr. Rochester at the beginning due to her identity, we saw a passionate and sexy Jane who did not hesitate to agree to Mr. Rochester's marriage proposal, and kissed him passionately; when she learned that Mr. Rochester still had a wife, although she was heartbroken, she insisted on her principles and left; finally, when St. John proposed marriage, she knew more clearly what she loved in her heart.

Jane was able to forgive her vicious aunt, taught every student sincerely, expressed her joy when she learned that she had siblings, and answered St. John's jealous inquiries playfully. Such a lovely girl. Her beauty is as bright and vibrant as her paintings. The image of Jane in the whole film has constantly surprised and inspired people watching the film. Jane, who is wearing a simple wedding dress, is the most beautiful bride.

Regarding Mr. Rochester, the insight of the actor Toby in the behind-the-scenes footage is very impressive to me. Mr. Rochester is a closed person, and his uncertainties stem from inner contradictions. It's as if he denied his affection for dancers while raising Adele; on the other hand, he was seriously dissatisfied with his marriage and with his father and brother, who betrayed him, but he always remembered his infatuation with his wife and couldn't bear to abandon her. When it comes to love, he was a little unsure about his feelings for Jane at first, but he never made it clear to Miss Ingram. I think Mr. Rochester's love to talk to Jane in the first place also stemmed from his uncertainty.

Mr. Rochester should be a person with high moral standards. He hates those high-class people and loves Jane equally. Whenever he does something wrong, his inner contradiction also comes from self-criticism. Fortunately, Jane appeared in their lives and pulled him out of his wandering confusion. His sexual history is long, but his love history is simple. He not only loves Jane but also admires her. Such a girl, even if she loves deeply, insists on addressing him as Mr. before marriage. She is the most attractive woman he has ever met. Jane is a dancer who gradually opens his heart and keeps him warm. Mr. Rochester was fond of Jane, he learned to be polite to Jane, and laughed at Jane. Toby is certainly not a handsome Rochester, but what woman can resist his affectionate glance at you? At the end of the film, although Mr. Rochester was disabled, he did not let Jane go, but firmly captured his beloved and went to live with his Mediterranean brothers and sisters. All he wanted was to be with Jane forever.

Regarding St. John, he is the greatest joy in the whole play. He is a Christian who is as hard as a stone. He buries his love for his ideals, leaves his relatives, and can rationally observe that Jane is his most suitable missionary. Mate, he is a priest in the womb!
