Very nice treatment of the Charlotte Bronte novel. Mostly told in flashbacks which allowed the economical telling of a complex story in just two hours.
Beautiful sets and locations brought us into the time/place. Both leads excelled in capturing the shaded personalities Bronte conjured up. MF even got me to forget Orson Welles...if only for a time. And MW looked and acted 19...something none of her predecessors managed. They were aided by a stellar supporting cast...Judi Dench, Sally Hawkins.
Solid classic adaptation.
