OK HERE IS A COMMENT ABOUT A HOT PERSON: St John. Handsome, manipulative, controlling St John Rivers, who can't understand that other people have real emotions and who represses his own feelings in an overtly masochistic way. Will we EVER get a Jane Eyre adaptation that actually treats Jane's time with the Rivers family as anything other than a short interlude? Because it's clearly *vital*. I mean, the novel even closes with a reference to St John, come on. St John is meant to be enormously seductive, in his icy terrifying way - and what's seductive about him is that he offers oblivion. Jane could lose herself. She chooses not to; not only does she choose Rochester, but she chooses her freedom as an individual once again. Which is p much the point of the book. I've seen so many versions where St John is a kindly vicar and uuuugh.
