Didn't see a thread for this.
There's coming a new adaptation of the 1847 novel of the same name by Charlotte Brontë and here's the synopsis.

"Mia Wasikowska ("Alice in Wonderland") and Michael Fassbender ("Inglourious Basterds") star in the romantic drama based on Charlotte Bronte's classic novel, from acclaimed director Cary Fukunaga ("Sin Nombre"). In the story, Jane Eyre flees Thornfield House, where she works as a governess for wealthy Edward Rochester. As she reflects upon the people and emotions that have defined her, it is clear that the isolated and imposing residence - and Mr. Rochester's coldness - have sorely tested the young woman's resilience, forged years earlier when she was orphaned. She must now act decisively to secure her own future and come to terms with the past that haunts her - and the terrible secret that Mr. Rochester is hiding and that she has uncovered..."

The film is set to open on March 11, 2011.

Twas a intriguing trailer and the film got a good cast too, Mia Wasikowska, Michael Fassbender, Jamie Bell and Judi Dench just to name a few.
 
Do you mean by the book it is based on?
 
I watched this movie today. I don't know what all the criticism is about. It was one of the better adaptions I've seen (which are quite few).

8/10
 
Great adaptation. I don't usually enjoy stories in the depressing, romantic era of Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights, but this film is excellent. Fassbender can do no wrong at this point.
