I just started reading JE this week. I had never read it before and decided it was time to do so.

JoAnn, you are in for a treat! Just to let you know, there's going to be a new A&E version of JE airing I believe this November in the U.S. starring Ciaran Hinds (of PERSUASION & IVANHOE) as Rochester. Should be a great production!

Yeah, that's great news! I think it will not only bring a lot more people to this site, but will also give us another great version of JE -- I downloaded a Quicktime trailer clip, and Hinds seems amazing -- Morton also has the right look & attitude for Jane. I can't wait for this thing to air!!!

I can't either! Actualy, I've liked every darn version I've ever seen of JANE EYRE, from Orson Welles to George C. Scott to Timothy Dalton. (well, Dalton is watchable in anything :) ) And Hinds was good in PERSUASION so here we go again...I'll tape it for my child whose an Austenaholic; it's time to wean her to the "steeper [deeper] stuff"...

You go, Cecily! Deeper emotionally -- I agree with you there. There's a chance we might be able to see the Hinds version sooner rather than later... Let me say enigmatically: remember my duplicating exercise on Pemberley? Well,I might be able to exercise my facility -- I mean faculties -- again. Stay tuned...
