the thing is with rochester and jane is that they're insane best friends. like it's easy to call rochester weird but you cannot make an adaptation of jane eyre where you don't establish the fact the reason rochester falls for jane in the first place and why they bridge that huge gap they have in terms of age and experience is that she's the only one out there that's as weird and offputting as he is. that's literally mr and mrs bozo

I don't know if you've said this before, but what's your favorite version of Jane Eyre?
It's really a fight to the death between 2011 and 2006. My favorite Jane is Mia Wasikowska and my favorite Rochester is Toby Stephens. 2011 perfectly captures the "gothic" half of the gothic romance novel we all love, while 2006 perfectly captures the "romance" half. You're asking me to choose my favorite child, and frankly, its unfair.

Can’t. The cellar is full of Amontillado.
