Jane Eyre (2011)

Jane Eyre flees Thornfield House, the vast and isolated
estate where she works as a governess for Adele, a child under the
custody of Thornfield’s brooding master, Edward Rochester. As Jane looks
back upon the tumultuous events that led to her escape, from her
childhood as an orphan to her education at the cruel charity school to
which she was consigned, she realizes that she must return to Thornfield
– to secure her own future, and to come to terms with the terrible
secret Rochester had hoped to hide from her forever. Starring Judi Dench

Another Year
10/03/12
Mike Leigh’s latest thoughtful, delicately crafted and often
moving film explores the lives of a contented couple in their early
sixties and their rather less than contented friends and family. Happily
married Gerri and Tom soak up the grudges and grievances of Tom's
brother Ronnie and their friends Ken and Mary whose mistakes, anger and
fragility provide the drama and pathos of the film. Leigh directs with a
lightness of touch that makes the smallest of dramas seem all the more
powerful. The cast are uniformly excellent, they inhabit rather than
portray the characters, helping make the film even more convincing and
engaging.
