Jane Eyre 1983 - "What About Now" Jane & Rochester

[Woodlander65]

Hands down, this was the best ever version for me. Even when i return to the book all i see is Tim/Zelah performing the roles. Excellent stuff.

[KDRainstorm]

@Woodlander65 I completely agree! This is my favorite adaptation of Jane Eyre and Timothy Dalton is Rochester for me - even though I think he probably is a bit too handsome for the role. Didn't mind that at all...LOL :)

I love this version of Jane Eyre and this video is excellent!!!

[honeyphan2]

Great job - makes me want to see this adaptation again. :) I love how you made the halo around their hands at beginning. A lot of silent impact there - also the flash forwards of fire were done well- 5*****

Thank you again for entering my contest- results will be up some time in first two weeks of May...please leave your video as a video response (don't post elsewhere) until then. If you post it elsewhere, it will disappear from my contest and I can no longer see it to judge it - thanks! :)

EXCELLENT!!!! Best version of JE I have seen on You Tube to date! Loved the fade to next scene effcts!! Well done KD!!!!

[KDRainstorm]

Thank you so much for your kind comment! I LOVE this version of JE - mainly because Timothy Dalton was so awesome in this role - so I HAD to make a video to it. So thanks again and glad you enjoyed it! :)

[tdltn08]

@KDRainstorm To me Tim was THEE best Rochester and I have watched a few of the other versions and I am always comparing them to this and nothing measures up!!! This is where I discovered him and was so amazed on what a fine actor he was and how he handled his lines and his timing...flawless

[catinthelap]

This is absolutely wonderful! Yours is the most beautifully artistic video of JE '83 I've seen--and there are a lot nice ones out there! I love the fade-to-painting effect. It suits the movie perfectly. The haunting ghosts of Bertha and the fire are fantastic! And thanks for including some of my favorite scenes!

[KDRainstorm]

I'm so glad you liked the video and the effects I used! I was trying to give the video a bit of a "modern" feel (since the movie looks rather dated), but yet keep it in line with its time period. So I thought that maybe a "painting-coming-to-life" effect might work. From your comment, I think it did! :) Thank you!

Num num, Timothy Dalton. An extremely good video, I absolutely adored it. Must ask, though, how good is this programme to use? Cos I've noticed that there happens to be free downloads and wondering whether it's worth getting. Hope you do well in the competition

[KDRainstorm]

Thank you - so glad you liked it! About Adobe Premiere Elements - I really like it so far. It has up to 99 tracks and lots of nice effects that seem as good as more expensive programs. I'm still learning it, though!  I got it as a gift (I think it's usually about $65 - $80) so I'm not sure how good the free download ones are (are they from safe websites?). I recommend downloading it from a free trial from Adobe to check it out and see if you like it. Thanks again for your comment!

Really enjoyed this video! -reminded me of my original love for this story! Timothy Dalton is a excellent Rochester! Great song choice too

[KDRainstorm]

Thank you! I know...Timothy Dalton was so good in this role - though maybe too handsome as Rochester (but I didn't care!) ;)

[8abyJane]

Thank you for sharing this wonderful work of yours!! It's so beautifully done!!! By the way, I have a question to many people out there in the world who think Timothy is gorgeous: I've never seen a man so handsome as him in my life, but do his type of men exist ordinarily in US or in Europe? Or is he considered to be rare and so gorgeous for people living in US or Europe as well? I wouldn't mind living abroad if I can find Timothy type of guy in that country... :D

[KDRainstorm]

So glad you liked the video! And about Timothy...well, I think a tall, dark, handsome, green-eyed gentleman who can play Rochester, Heathcliff, Rhett Butler and James Bond is definitely rare - in any country! ;)

[GHJasamfan]

Gorgeous vid! I must see this version of JE!!

[KDRainstorm]

Thank you! And YES - definitely watch this version! It's a wonderful adaptation and Timothy Dalton portrays a great Rochester :)

[Daltonitis]

Great Job! Very innovative approach and very well done.

[KDRainstorm]

Thank you! Glad you liked it :)

[VA81]

Great video and effects. I agree with Chica, they gave it a more modern feel.

You should definitely do more. :)

[danniebob]

This Video Is Just Great, No Wait, Brillinat :D I Love This Version And Its The Best Ever. Brillaint Song Choice Too. I So Love Timothy In This, I Wish I Was Jane Eyre

[KDRainstorm]

Thank you! And I agree - whenever I watch this, I wish I was Jane, too! :)

[MissChocolateAddict]

This is awesome... and I don't care who says I'm talking rubbish, for me, Zelah Clarke and Timothy Dalton are Jane Eyre and Rochester for me. They look the part, act the part and become the part and reflect this is their performance.

[KDRainstorm]

Thank you - glad you liked the video! And I guess I'm talking rubbish too because I also think Timothy Dalton and Zelah Clarke were just perfect as Jane Eyre and Rochester. Love this version...:)

[LadyViolet7]

Thank you for this amazing and unusual Jane Eyre tribute! I like it very much! Great choice of scenes and interesting effects!

[KDRainstorm]

Thank you for the compliment! I really enjoyed making it and glad that others enjoy it too!

Who is sining this song

Chris Daughtry

[cheekygirl8]

Wow-thanks K! I LOVE the editing of this video and the effects you used! It gave the '83 piece an updated feel! Timothy is handsome as ever and so perfect as Rochester! I am glad we are friends- so sweet- Thanks!

[KDRainstorm]

Hi, Chica - Glad you liked it! And you're exactly right - when I started the vid - it looked dated so I played around with different effects to try and make it look more modern. So by your response, it looks like it worked - Yay! But now that I'm done with this...I think I'm suffering from withdrawal! Guess I'll just have to do another JE/Timothy vid again soon...;)

[princessamerigo]

Great video and song!

[KDRainstorm]

Thanks!

[JamesBondTeam]

Great video, 5 stars!.

What kind of program do you use to made it? I love it. ;)

(saw your reaction on Chica her channel)

[KDRainstorm]

Glad you liked it! I use Adobe Premiere Elements 7.

[JamesBondTeam]

Okey thank you. Would you check also my channel out. I make also videos about Timothy but than about him as James Bond 007. ;)

[JaneGirl80]

That was lovely. 5 stars from me.

[KDRainstorm]

Thank you!
