　　Jane Eyre — A Beautiful Soul

　　Jane Eyre, is a poor but aspiring, small in body but huge in soul, obscure but self-respecting girl. After we close the covers of the book, after having a long journey of the spirit, Jane Eyre, a marvelous figure, has left us so much to recall and to think:
　　We remember her goodness: for someone who lost arms and blinded in eyes, for someone who despised her for her ordinariness, and even for someone who had hurt her deeply in the past.

　　We remember her pursuit of justice. It’s like a companion with the goodness. But still, a virtuous person should promote the goodness on one side and must check the badness on the other side.

　　We remember her self-respect and the clear situation on equality. In her opinion, everyone is the same at the God’s feet. Though there are differences in status、in property and also in appearance, but all the human being are equal in personality.

　　We also remember her striving for life, her toughness and her confidence…

　　When we think of this girl, what she gave us was not a pretty face or a transcendent temperament that make us admire deeply, but a huge charm of her personality.

　　Actually, she wasn’t pretty, and of course, the ordinary appearance didn’t make others feel good of her, even her own aunt felt disgusted with it. And some others even thought that she was easy to look down on and to tease, so when Miss Ingram met Jane Eyre, she seemed quite contemptuous, for that she was obviously much more prettier than ‘the plain and ugly governess’. But as the little governess had said: ‘Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!’ This is the idea of equality in Jane Eyre’s mind. God hadn’t given her beauty and wealth, but instead, God gave her a kind mind and a thinking brain. Her idea of equality and self-respect impress us so much and let us feel the power inside her body.

　　In my mind, though a person’s beauty on the face can make others once feel that one is attractive and charming, if his or her mind isn’t the same beautiful as the appearance, such as beauty cannot last for, when others find that the beauty which had charmed them was only a falsity, it’s not true, they will like the person no more. For a long time, only a person’s great virtue, a noble soul, a beautiful heart can be called as AN EVERLASTING BEAUTY, just as Kahill Gibran has said, that ‘Beauty is a heart enflamed and a soul enchanted’. I can feel that how beauty really is, as we are all fleshly men, so we can’t distinguish whether a man is of nobleness or humbleness, but fleshly men, so we can’t distinguish whether a man is of nobleness or humbleness, but as there are great differences in our souls, and from that, we can know that whether a man is noble or ordinary, and even obscure, that is, whether he is beautiful or not.

　　Her story makes us thinking about life and we learn much from her experience, at least, that is a fresh new recognition of the real beauty.

A
thoroughly
engaging
adaption
of
the
brooding
classic,
this
film
rises
above
the
turgid
tone
often
imposed
on
other
classics
brought
to
the
screen.
Joan
Fontaine
turns
in
a
brilliantly
deceptively
understated
performance,
and
Orson
Welles
restrains
from
the
scenery
chewing
that
marred
some
of
his
own
projects;
there
is
surprising
chemistry
between
them.
At
times,
Welles
is
a
downright
"sexy"
leading
man!
The
script
(credited
to
John
Houseman
and
Aldous
Huxley)
captures
the
right
"tone"
of
Victorian
cruelty
and
repression.
Under
Robert
Stevenson's
direction
Fontaine/Welles
seem
to
capture
the
essence
of
two
abused
outsiders
resisting
their
attraction
for
one
another,
trying
to
adhere
to
convention.
A
strong
supporting
cast.
There
are
brief
though
memorable
appearances
by
Agnes
Moorehead,
Elizabeth
Taylor
and
Peggy
Ann
Garner
as
"young"
Jane.
George
Barnes'
camera
captures
appropriately
stark
images
of
Ross
Dowd
and
Thomas
Little's
sets.
Charlotte
Bronte's
grim
novel
is
well
suited
to
the
excellent
B/W,
cinematography:
a
memorable
scene
early
in
the
film
has
young
Jane
being
punished
by
being
forced
to
stand
on
a
stool
that
is
nearly
in
the
center
of
a
fan
of
shadows
cast
by
the
stair
railing,
It
is
almost
reminiscent
of
expressionist
German
films
of
the
Weimar
years.
The
film
manages
to
entertain
as
well
as
inform.
Purists
may
object
to
the
last
3
lines
of
the
film
which
hint
at
a
slightly
happier
denouement
than
the
book
offered.
In
spite
of
that,
Jane
Eyre
is
still
a
nearly
flawless
film.
