Watched a splendid adaptation of Jane Eyre, directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga. Anchored by a marvellous performance by Mia Wasikowska it also has excellent support from Michael Fassbinder, Judi Dench and Jamie Bell. Can a movie be better than the book it comes from? Probably not but this comes close. It's pared back, spare and manages the novel's implausible plot points well enough to keep intact your willing suspension of disbelief. Well worth watching.
