Apparently this story has been around awhile and had been remade more than a few times. If you are unfamiliar this is a drama/romance about an orphan girl become woman in I would guess early 1800's England. This was some great drama with a nice teaser in it. Aside from the stunning cinematography all the players are in A list form.. not only was my attention riveted to the screen for the duration, I could actually project myself into the scenes (fly on the wall of course). Nothing came across over melodramatic that wasn't supposed to. Great story. Traditional lessons to be learned, with the Jane character brushing sainthood. Yeah its a chick flick but its more proper romance than sappy gooey lets drink this poison and die together rot. Highly Recommended.
