Beschreibungen/Notizen
[...] the image of the screenwriter "mining" the novel, paired with the suggestion that the film will be well-received by "long-term fans of the book," suggest a cinematic production derived exclusively from Bronte's text, bypassing generations of ham-fisted, reductive, or otherwise inadequate attempts to put the novel to screen. Though one could argue that the battlemented manor house and its chilly, hilly environs were fitting enough to warrant a second run, the reuse of particular rooms (Rochester's study and the drawing room, for example) and even particular shots (Jane's arrival at Thornfield, with the carriage in the bottom right of the frame and Thornfield looming in the middle distance) make the 2006 film seem, in certain places, less a revival of Bronte's novel than of Zeffirelli's adaptation.
