We saw the new "Jane Eyre" yesterday. I have a new crush - Michael Fassbender. Dark, intense, dreamy.
The film is terrific, btw; one of the best adaptations of the book. It really captures the gothic romance of the period: it's moody, brooding, spooky, sometimes terrifying and incredibly sensuous. Mia Wasikowska doesn't play Jane as a victim, but as the heroine that Charlotte Bronte actually wrote: strong-willed, witty, beaten but never, ever defeated. She's stunning in the role.
J2 had never seen "Jane Eyre" in any of its incarnations, he'd never read the book. I was a little wary about how he'd react to the film, but he was completely captivated too. Whew.
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)
