JANE EYRE (1934) - ♦♦

Directed by - Christy Cabanne

Written by - Adele Comandini (based on the novel by Charlotte Bronte)

Starring - Virginia Bruce, Colin Clive

"The first of many sound adaptations of the famous Charlotte Bronte novel about an orphan girl who grows up to become a governess and falls in love with the master of the house. The film is short and obviously rushed; the screenplay is poor and the pace makes the whole thing feel unnatural. However, Clive and Bruce are two good leads."
