Charlotte Brontë's Victorian romance isn't any stranger on the silver screen, but Sin Nombre director Cary Fukunaga's affecting and beautifully mounted adaptation is one of many best. Sometimes, casting can make every certainly one of the difference. In this case, Australia's Mia Wasikowska (Alice in Wonderland) plays the determined Jane Eyre opposite Ireland's Michael Fassbender (Fish Tank) as the world-weary Edward Rochester (neither actor betrays their country of origin). Fukunaga starts off with Jane's avoid Rochester's High Gothic Thornfield Hall before flashing back towards the days if the plainspoken orphan lived with her cruel and resentful aunt (an unsympathetic Sally Hawkins). The aunt ships her off to your loveless charity school, where she still manages to obtain a good education, and she lands a situation as governess for Rochester's ward, Adèle. Though his housekeeper (Dame Judi Dench, excellent) makes Jane feel welcome, the brooding Rochester efforts to mock and demean her, though the quick-witted 19-year-old can take her own. What might offend a far more superficial man intrigues her employer (played by the gent more handsome than the author intended). Sparks fly, but he expresses greater interest in a very local beauty. Just as Jane finally pierces Rochester's armor, she discovers his terrible secret, and hits the road. She meets a kindly missionary (Jamie Bell) and his awesome sweet sisters, who offer her the family she never had, before a sequence of well-plotted developments allow Jane to forge her very own future. For once, no one can stop her, making for any swoon-worthy, if bittersweet conclusion. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
