This was an exquisite version of Jane Eyre -everything was top level, the acting, cinematography, music, direction and script. I'll now always imagine Rochester as Fassbender's performance (to me it blows away the other versions) and Mia Wasikowska is sublime, so sensitive, yet strong - a magical performance as Jane Eyre.
I read Jane Eyre like a thousand of times and I would have never envisioned Michael as Rochester. He's too gorgeous, too perfect. But, oh my, then I discovered that Fassbender can be whatever he wants to be. He embodies the character perfectly, his passion and Mia's perfect performance of Jane make the movie one of the most delightful period movies I've ever watched :)
yes there are i have one similar to him, so romantic and wonderful...God brought us together and i waited my whole life for him...u gotta pray to God and be faithful....
@jessicadorlac Agreed. He has wore that jacket on other interviews with different hairstyle and it never fails to amuse me and make me drool!!! Man, so cute!
DAMN THIS MAN IS BUSY! I mean not alot of Americans REALLY knew who he was before he was in X-men First class and then he did shame, a dangerous method ,haywire,jane eyre,Pitch black heist and Promethious. Now he is a household name. I knew about him When he did ingloroius bastards and i followed with him from there. But now i think he is really doing amazing. Plus he is drop dead sexy so that helps.
@randa9711 Agreed! He caught my eye in "300" and then in "Hunger" as Bobby Sands. Powerful actor, great on the eyes. Very cool how his career is soaring. I like him so much I actually sat down and watched Jane Eyre and can't wait to get the book on my Nook!
Charlotte Bronte wrote Rochester as a man who most woman would not consider him bc of his beauty or sexiness but rather, like the woman that wants to marry him, it’s for his money. He is not a man that woman would flock to and as Bronte describes him, the reader understands that if he did not hv the money he would hv to work very hard to win any woman over.
He is not bad in the movie, but there is no chemistry between the two except in two climatic moments. I think is the director, not the actor. Plus she is too cold all the time, unexpressive.
