Review of Jane Eyre

Jane Eyre (1970 TV Movie)
7/10
They skipped the best part!
22 November 2006
I enjoyed the movie for what they presented but they left out the beginning of the book. Jane gets into a fight with here guardian aunt, who then locks her in a dark closet for the night. Jane is terrified, has hallucinations, and swoons. The next day is when arrangement's are made for her to go to that school. Almost reminds you of scenes out of Charles Dickins "Great Expectations" (Guardian Aunt - "I raised you by hand I did and this is the thanks I get?") and "Mommy Dearest". I do agree with other reviewers that George C. Scott does a great job on his part and Susan York graces the screen with her beauty, and her acting. Instead of for TV this one should have been released in theaters
