As I watched it I was definitely aware "Ooh, book purists are going to have a hard time with this!" My flexibility when it comes to adaptations gets me in trouble xD
Basically, I consider translating into a new media a retelling: if I don't think the magic of the original is there, I'm not going to favor a more faithful interpretation. And yeah, if you have a version you already like, that's different from me, feeling like the more revolutionary script format is giving it a new life. Who plays Rochester in the one you like? It may be one of the several I haven't watched, though there are several I have. (It is actual-factual-bear the most adapted book in he history of film.)
I find it academically interesting, too, to compare. I'm obsessed with how story works and often adaptations don't stand on their own as well. They're for fans who are going to follow it anyway...
This is a kind of technical start, because I'm getting wicked sleepy, but I DO wanna discuss! I am still so behind... t-t My mom wasn't feeling well so my first day off went to her PayDay errands and drop-off-pick-up of kids. Which had fun parts, but Bleh. I'm just now getting a little writing done.
