Jane Eyre (film)
From Aldous Huxley's intriguing Orson Welles/Joan Fontaine 1943 film, through Charlotte Gainsbourg and William Hurt's performances in Franco Zeffirelli's 199 film, Ciaran Hinds and Samantha Morton in a 1997 ITV film, Ruth Wilson and Toby Stephens' work in the 2006 BBC miniseries, and the most recent (as of 2022) 2011 film directed by Cary Fukunaga and starring Mia Wasikowska and Michael Fassbender, Jane Eyre has never been short of adaptations. A consistent trait of all the adaptations is the conversion of Jane and Rochester from plain or unhandsome to good-looking or downright stunning -- a clear case of Adaptational Attractiveness.
