The film was spoiled for me because they kept going in and out of the past. I'd rather view Jane Eyre story in chronological order, not one scene in the present, the scene in her past. They didn't focus much on her childhood.

Loved it till the end where they stopped it short compared to the book. I watched it in the cinema and there was a lot of grumbling about it to the point I went home and read the ending to see what I'd missed as wasnt how I remembered either lol

One of my favourite adaptations, I just find it a bit too sentimental and short for my tastes
