Jane Eyre (1983)_ Proposal Scene

[@AJB9806]

“You think because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little I am soulless and heartless? I have as much soul as you and full as much heart! And if god had granted me some beauty and much wealth I’d have made it as hard for you to leave me right now as it is for me to leave you.” My favorite line in the entire book.

Never looked at that part as I do now. Great insight!

[@monicacall7532]

When I was in 6th grade I did a book report on “Jane Eyre”. My stupid teacher thought that I was lying about having read it, so I gave him my dog eared well-thumbed copy of the book and asked him to open it to any page, read a sentence and I’d tell him what was going on in that scene. Happily for me, he opened it to this proposal scene which I loved so much that I’d memorized it. The look on his face when I gave the whole scene word for word and then explained what it meant was somewhere between confused that a 6th grader could actually read and understand an “adult” book and anger that he’d been shown up in front of the class. Just to make sure that he understood my message about the “grown up” books my next book report was on “Wuthering Heights”! As you can imagine I was not popular with this teacher! Thank you Brontë sisters!

[@WarriorMondenkind]

Hey I get you there, thanks to Wishbone I was reading Romeo and Juliet in 5h grade.

[@johnnyutah7989]

Great story. Same thing happen to me with my hippy teacher who didn't think I read the lion the witch and the wardrobe. I was mad that he didn't think I read that book in a day, because A, I liked it so much, and B, he thought I wasn't smart enough. Felt good to show him up.

Monica Call I adore this! I hate when teachers assume what they don’t know about their students!

[@monicacall7532]

Thank you CAT07032! When I taught 5th grade gifted and talented for all subjects I would tell my students about my experience in 6th grade. The story never failed to shock them. Unfortunately, I ran into my own version of my 6th grade teacher with some teachers at the middle school my students went to after they left 5th grade. The GT English teacher complained that my students already knew how to write research papers and were reading books like “Pride and Prejudice” and “David Copperfield”, so what was she was supposed to do with them? I gave her several suggestions, but she didn’t want to hear them. The math teacher complained that I’d already taught 6th grade math to my class which messed up his schedule. When I suggested that he teach my students pre-algebra you’d have thought that I’d asked him to teach calculus to kindergarteners! When I was a student I hated lazy teachers and teachers who refused to believe that students could be capable of doing work several grades above their age group, especially when they loved what they were learning and were motivated to learn more. We often hear about the poor kids who struggle with learning challenges, but we also need to talk about and help the really bright students who need to be challenged and stretched.

[@anastasias3678]

I just read a book and the describing of mr. Rochester. Personally, I think Timothy fits perfectly! Athletic figure, dark hair and thick eyebrows, not small, noticeable nose… pretty mainly appearance. Book doesn’t say, that he wasn’t attractive at all, it’s says more that he didn’t fit this time standards of beauty. Also he was pretty popular with woman. And Jane said a couple of times that she thought of him as he is beautiful man. I think this series did a great job at casting, because Jane is also just perfect in this series. (Sorry for my not perfect English)

[@turtels6764]

Yes! A commenter who understands that he wasn't "ugly" in the sense that he was hard to look at, but the standards at that time were very different from today's, and the language was too. Edward was a lady's man, but he wasn't the pale, prim prince that was considered a "beautiful" man back then.

[@veronikazahorecova8706]

[@naylisyazwina6836]

@@turtels6764 Jane clearly says he is not handsome though. Maybe he isn't. Maybe the women are just around him because they know he is rich.

[@nora22000]

Many comments point out that Dalton is 'too hot' to be a credible Rochester. In fact, the preferred archetype for male beauty at that time would have been St. John Rivers. Dalton would have been 'Vulcan' to Rivers' 'Apollo.' In fact, we have Charlotte Bronte's 'Jane Eyre' as the British cultural game-changer that made the whole idea of 'tall, dark and handsome' fit together in the same phrase. Just one more irony for this fantastic franchise. I just love this 1983 interpretation of the book. Well done!

[@punch6832]

nora22000 Thank you! Finally someone else realizes that Dalton was perfect because the cultural preference for male attractiveness at that time was the blond, Grecian Apollo, like St. John.

Yeah, I used to "overlook" how handsome he is because...let's be honest: I wouldn't have it any other way! (Oh, man I love watching and listening to his portrayal) *clears throat* moving on. This most recent time reading the book, I finally realized what you said! His characteristics aren't too far off from the way Rochester's specific features are described in the book. I think we all just take Jane's description of him as not being handsome and assume he can't be handsome at all.

Not only did I love this version best of all but Timothy Dalton and Zelah Clarke were awesome together and the entire cast was amazing. But more than that this version is true to the source of Charlotte Bronte's writings..I've seen so many adaptations of Jane Eyre and let me tell you they're all very good in their own way, but nothing compares to this version. I love the language; I love the era. It was a different world, a different time.

[@emilyseal3207]

The whole cast was perfect. Brocklehurst. What an ahole. And St. John Rivers! OMG he was so cruel! I want to point out that the book describes her Aunt as dark." I believe she may have been West Indian. I find this to be really noteworthy. Bertha Mason was also West Indian. There must have been quite alot of "mixed race" "mixed heritage" in England at that time.

The height difference is in keeping with the story since not only is Jane described as being little virtually from birth in the book -- Mrs. Reed describes her as being "puny" as an infant -- the deprivations which she experienced at Lowood would quite probably have stunted her growth even more.

I haven't thought much about this. Was he trying to make her aware of herself or "test the waters?" She is so young, and knows nothing of passion, not like this. He tells her repeatedly to "take up" her own destiny. And then I wonder if he was trying to determine is she would love him back. Also, he is very cautious about appearances. He knows he's taking a chance. He'll never be invited back into society, that is for sure. There are so many ways to analyze this book, which is why it's such a Masterpiece. I can only imagine how difficult it would have been (if they had gotten that far), or how long it would have taken her, to disrobe in front of her husband. Most women in this era knew absolutely nothing about marital intimacy, and he had already three mistress (in the book) prior to her, not to mention how many trips to London for their "sensual" distractions he may have been alluding to.

I know that Dalton does not match the character from the book since Rochester was supposed to be unattractive but I don't care looking at him here because that man is gorgeous!

[@judyblackman1215]

This is my new obsession... just love watching Timothy Dalton as Rochester...❤️❤️❤️

[@aysun9354]

I love so much this version with Timothy Dalton !

[@LynnNeumann]

This story is so beautiful.

[@asmauabdullahi3642]

I love the movie Jane Eyre but the 1983 edition is my favourite

[@scarlett1966]

I agree! It's exactly as I imagined Rochester and Jane Eyre is one of the best books I've ever read!!! I remember I was twelve the first time I read this scene!

[@emilyseal3207]

I was 14, I think. I remember feeling shocked and dismayed at the wedding interruption. Aghast! And then supernatural connection they maintained during her sojourn. Just an absolute dream. I was mature enough of a reader to understand the depth of the dialogue in all aspects of the book, but it touched me deeply as an adolescent.

[@EatMeBeatMeGirl]

It's the touch of the Welsh accent. Can hardly cope with how hot he is!

[@frankieb43]

He's absolutely gorgeous and his expression and voice is just perfect 👌❤️

[@MariaCristianaPfeifer]

This film is very good... I like Timothy Dalton, he is a great actor. As James Bond is perfect. The best version of this romance....

[@louisamitchell3295]

Yes! I agree!

[@Taylorolivia1116]

Best version of Jane Eyre ever done! Timothy dalton would have also made a wonderful Mr. Darcy! He had me at, “Make my happiness..I’ll make yours.”

[@allys744]

The dialogue in this scene is almost exactly word for word in the original text. 🙌❤️ I love the Jane Eyre story (it reminds me of the Sound of Music), any adaptation of this book, I’ll watch. This, and A Christmas Carol have been well adapted over the years

[@deeann424]

He is total HUNK, so very handsome and a wonderful actor. He has a strong masculine presence that would make any woman's knees bend.

[@user-eb8mi3xi5f]

Too handsome for Edward?

[@annetekoul]

Best wedding proposal ever!Both in the book and in the series.

[@MaryShannon-mg8fg]

The Best Jane Eyre, two actors were,Brilliant, like the book,❤

[@RazrHack]

So, the man is the definitive Bond, now the definitive Rochester... could Dalton be the best actor ever? He's certainly a candidate.

[@voulafisentzidis8830]

In my view he's right up there with Daniel Day Lewis and Richard Armitage.

[@georgianageorgianelli7918]

Timothy Dalton is the best Rochester ever

[@leedobson]

Dalton still has that honey voice

[@chandacaston]

2011 version is my bias but this... 👏👏👏 Just wonderful!!!! Just like the book. I need to see the whole movie now

[@toniesolomon]

Uggghhh that deeepp voice makes me shiver and tremble with pleasure everytime i hear it . Oufff dear me ! Hes good looking and handsome and virile .oh yess

[@ДенисКалмыковДенисКалмыков]

а музыка какая щемящая прекрасная вначале каждой серии...

[@andrewmiller4885]

Timothy Dalton , a brilliant actor and a very handsome man . I first saw Timothy playing Heathcliff in another film adaptation of Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights". After seeing Olivier in the original movie and in the same role , one couldn't help but make comparisons . Timothy Daltons performance was equally as captivating as Olivier's . Timothy Dalton was every bit as good if not better than the great Sir Lawrence............... Shock shock, yes that's right , that's how darn good Timothy Dalton was and is .

[@krystalkillien5550]

i love this version so much especially mr. Rochester he's the best looking ive ever seen in most movies at that age that was made they act so beautifully like u were a third person standing there :)

[@tjp2109]

I was just watching the 2011 version and not having seen the proposal scend in a few years I thought it felt so dang rushed. This is much better!

[@analynraquipo5623]

i love this version ever.

[@kayveecreative4320]

Best adaptation! One of my favorite books. Loved seeing the gypsy scene...no other JE's I've seen bother with it and it's one of the best scenes in the book. :)

[@janeeyre-quotes]

I believe the 1973 version (with Sorcha Cusack and Michael Jayston) had the gypsy scene as well. I too loved their exchange of words. :)

[@forestclarisse4130]

Ok. We' re in 2014. But this. This... Is my favorite love compassion ever existed, i all it's awkward way.

[@Agui007]

The modern versions are too pantomime compared this well constructed and well established cast, minus dizzy cameraman. The old classics can never be beaten.

[@megahappy2bemeIntheStarz]

I love when they embrace !!!! Lovely.

[@RetroJenny]

This is my favorite version of Jane Eyre. The 73 version is my second favorite. Thanks for uploading this.

[@anneelliot19]

Mr. Rochester let me look at your face... HIS FACE!!!!!!

[@marlenebuchhalter3891]

Dalton is unbearably handsome. What a glorious man!

[@ИннаЖирова-м5т]

Мы смотрим снова и снова сериал ,чувствуем влечение и химию, между ними даже через экран Далтон сыграл эту роль так, потому что играл именно с Зилой Кларк Идеально подобранные на роль влюбленных Далтон сыграл много ролей и любовных сцен,но нигде он не поднялся до таких высот ,как здесь Именно потаму что играл с Зилой Это главная и лучшая роль его жизни

[@bayer54]

Awww I love Timothy Dalton ! He's so damn handsome !
