Upcoming Event- Sunday Afternoon Movie at Perrot: Jane Eyre

Cozy up on a winter Sunday afternoon at the library and enjoy a movie in celebration of Charlotte Bronte’s 200th birthday! English tea and refreshments will be served.

Mia Wasikowska and Michael Fassbender star in the romantic drama based on the classic novel, from acclaimed director Cary Fukunaga. As governess Jane Eyre flees Thornfield House– where she works for wealthy Edward Rochester– she reflects upon the people and emotions that have defined her. It is clear that the isolated and imposing residence (and Mr. Rochester’s coldness) have sorely tested the young woman’s resilience, forged years earlier when she was orphaned. She must now act decisively to secure her own future and come to terms with the past that haunts her– and the terrible secret that Mr. Rochester is hiding and that she has uncovered.
