Movie vs Novel
Jane Eyre in the novel and the movie were very different. Many things werent even shone in the movie if i hadnt read the book the movie wouldnt even make since. For instance St. John didnt have two cousins, (Diana and Mary) as in the novel in the movie he only had one Diana. St. John also found Jane in the woods instead of in the novel were as Jane found their house came knocking on the door and was refused to come in but since she was a peculiar case st. john allowed her to come in and rest. In another case that also happened in the novel that didnt happened in the book was that Jane and St. John never relieazed they were cousins, and Jane never became rich. Also Jane told St. John her real name as in the novel were she told him a fake name. The movie left many different scenes from the novel that seemed very important to novel out from the movie. Making from after watching the novel very dissapointing, the acting was good and it the movie didnt really flow but over all its a ok film.

Actually, Mary and Diana are St. John's sisters. I was surprised that they left out several characters such as John Reed, Rosamond, and Mary. It is one thing to leave out a few details, but leaving out characters of family and love has a great impact on the movie and how the viewer recognizes the connections between characters. Although some things made the movie more disappointing, I enjoyed seeing the characters in action.
