Cary Fukunaga’s adaptation of Jane Eyre benefits from two fine performances from its leads, the ever excellent Michael Fassbender and Mia Wasikowska, and what the director has managed to bring to the screen with a real potency is the complex relationship between the two.

Here’s the exclusive clip, I’m not even going to entertain the notion of adding a spoiler warning to this,
And is if to prove our undying love you to dear Reader, we’ve got this rather nice location report/behind the scenes video from Skinny Wrist.
