Jane Eyre (1971)

Member Rating:

Charlotte Bronte's classic Victorian novel is once again put through the paces, this time by Delbert Mann, in this stodgy Masterpiece Theater style television adaptation. Susannah York is Jane Eyre, the orphan girl who secures a position as a governess to the ward of Edward Rochester (George C. Scott), lord of an English manor house called Thornfield, whose halls hide a dark and sinister secret. Jane and the moody and the tyrannical Rochester fall in love and agree to marry. But at their wedding ceremony, Rochester is revealed to have been already married. Suddenly his dark past comes crashing in on both himself and the innocent Jane. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

For all the problems with the DVD master, and the lame script and direction, I still like watching this version of Jane Eyre because George C. Scott comes closest to Bronte's description of Mr.Rochester. He really is an incredible actor! Worth watching just to see him being someone other than Patton! And, even though it's a truly lousy print, I'm glad they made a DVD of it!

The worst DVD master I have ever seen so far. The DVD with this low quality should never be released.
