This was just like Harry Potter (not a troll)
Jane's life (in the movie - never read the book) was JUST LIKE Harry Potter's for at least the first 20 minutes. Think about it:
* Same actress that played Jane's aunt also played Harry's aunt Petunia
* Both Harry and Jane's aunt were forced to care for them after the death of the child's parents
* Both Harry and Jane had a fat male cousin that mistreated them (I was totally waiting for the fat cousin to shove Jane into the closet under the stairs)
* Both Harry and Jane are ostracised by their 'new' families for being 'different'
* Both Harry and Jane are sent to a 'special' school
* Niether Harry not Jane have any experience with presents
* Both Harry and Jane's first friend at their new schools are redheads
* Both Schools have an overly intimidating male teacher (I expected the 'hair cutting dick' in Jane Eyre to go into a "There will be no wand-waving or sill incantations in my classroom" speech) who tries to break them into conformity
Just saying.
