Fukunaga embraces the gothic atmosphere to create a haunting portrayal of a romance between a young woman who never loses her sense of self-worth despite the constant cruelty she receives and a man who has attempted to become aloof in order to hide a bizarre and horrifying secret. Director Cary Fukunaga doesn't give a damn about that gulf and his adaptation of Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre is a lush, confident, and powerful film as a result. There's a vast gulf between adapting a gothic period romance and connecting with a modern audience.
