In the Wall Street Journal article “For Jane Eyre, the Kid Is All Right,” John Jurgensen speaks with Mia Wasikowska, the stary of Cary Fukunaga’s upcoming Jane Eyre, about the book, the film, her love of photography and her ballet training.

I was on the fifth chapter when I emailed my agent to ask if anyone was adapting it. Two months later she sent me the script and I was meeting Cary.
