Trevor Noah: Afraid of the Dark (2017)
good inteligent clean acting and comedy
Really nice, clean, inteligent humor, lot of acting with accents - Trevor is the best at doing them. A lot of political jokes...more storry telling...I had a good time wathing this and the end part killed it, I laughed really badly :D
He´s got the point. And his humor is very authentic.
I also loved his book and other shows.
Jane Eyre (2011)
Sadly quite weak and shallow adaptation of otherwise brilliant story
I've recently seen Jane Eyre from 1986 and from 2006 and this version, and I've read the book as well. I must say, that this newest version is the least faithful to original from all, many scenes and key dialogs changed, adjusted or cut of and with very poor acting performances. Jane Eyre, story originally full of passion and controversial emotions, rich dialogs with much depth, was in this version unfortunately reduced and lessened so much that it lost its fire and point. If I hadn't seen and read this story before, I would have considered it quite weak and empty, embarrassing pseudo-romantic story without real motion. But Jane Eyre is the exact opposite of this - sadly not in this version. I had an impression that both Jane and Rochester had only 1, at most 2 kinds of facial expressions, all the time same said and sub-depressive. I do not understand what was the director's and actor's intention in this, but in my opinion, it has missed its goal. The only enchanting thing was the music which I evaluate highly and was very captivating for me, as well as nice face of Jane.I would maybe accept hers production somehow, but "Rochester" here disappointed me entirely. To everybody who is interested in real Jane Eyre or is annoyed or unsatisfied from this version, I highly recommend Jane Eyre series with Timothy Dalton from 1986, or as well the series from 2006. There I see the fullness of emotions, scenes and scenario that I would expect from filming such quality piece as Bronte's Jane Eyre.
