And it's all the more impressive in light of the young Australian star's charmingly modern portrayal of an American teenage daughter in "The Kids Are All Right. That's particularly stirring in a crucial moment of self-assertion-"Am I a machine without feelings?" she begins-with Michael Fassbender's forbiddingly handsome Rochester. Jane's personal power seems entirely her own, rather than some anachronistic notion of self-empowerment. As an orphaned child, Jane Eyre (Mia Wasikowska) is first cruelly abused by her aunt.

(Eighteen feature films, to be exact, and nine TV versions.) This Jane meets the world and everyone in it with a rock-solid sense of herself that can only be shaken by love. She embodies Jane's most endearing qualities-courage, passion, devotion, unadorned beauty-but not for a moment the moist poignance that many of the umpteen previous versions have inflicted on her. Almost everything about Cary Fukunaga's version of the Charlotte Brontë romance is understated yet transfixing, mainly-although far from exclusively-because of Mia Wasikowska's presence in the title role.
In between shes managed to fit in a new adaptation of Jane Eyre. Australian actress Mia Wasikowska is a talent to watch, having honed her craft in independent films like Defiance and The Kids Are All Right before going on to star in Hollywood blockbuster Alice in Wonderland.
Soon after the fevered opening of this latest "Jane Eyre," the far-off figure of the heroine, unmoored on the moors, stands at a crossroads that is hardly more than a crosspaths-four corners faintly traced in one of the film's many understated yet transfixing vistas. Jane Eyres Mia Wasikowska 'goofed around' with Michael Fassbender.
