Subject: RE: BS: New BBC Jane Eyre adaptation
I am enjoying it and re-read Jane and Wuthering Heights every two years or so.

Did I imagine a scene where Helen is made to stand on the hated stool out in the rain? Her cough becomes pneumonia and so she dies.
Orson Welles is my favorite Rochester.

Interestingly enough Timothy Dalton is my favorite Heathcliff. Years ago he starred in a strange version of Heights and ran around through most of the movie in a stunning green velvet outfit that flattered his eyes. He looked positively demonic.
