THE HEART WANTS WHAT IT WANTS

Jane Eyre (2011) - IMDb

I took a really long time to finish this great book. After having enjoyed the story in print, I moved on to doing what many readers would not highly approve of. I watched the movie version of the same. I should say, the movie did capture the essence of the book and the author's intention. As women, we have all had our Jane moments in life. The way we have been brought up, the way we are conditioned by society and the goals we have to meet to attain our life's purpose is depicted beautifully through Jane's characterisation. The woman's feelings and emotions getting constantly tormented by the true love she had towards her master Rochester and the inability to move on with her life even after having a broken heart stay relevant to the relationship crisis we face today. There are many instances that show how women were perceived by men and their community. In an era when women were not allowed to exercise their basic right to freedom and to make life choices, Jane Eyre stands as a coming-of-age drama sparking discussions on Woman Empowerment.

Sharp at 8:45 these huge pair of gates would be closed.There would be a little door too...for other people to enter..and the notice board that you see right there always captivated us during monsoons....we'd wait for some holiday notes to be written so we could run back home. Emails or Phones or WhatsApp didn't exist then. Though these gates did scare us a few times...it very well taugh...
