The 'Farewell' Scene..
It's been said many times, but Jayston is the best Rochester EVER! The farewell scene is truly heartbreaking. He wavers between pure frustration, anger, sadness, and love, and does it so well that you could almost cut the tention with a knife. You feel such sympathy for him, and yet you feel for Jane as well. The chemistry between the two is electric.
I get frustrated and upset just watching it - it's impossible to decide who I would side with in opinion. Edward has had such a sad and lonely life, searching for the right woman to love and love him in return. Jane has become his whole world, and he's about to lose her and he knows it. Poor man.
On the other hand, he didn't tell the truth, though he had his just reasons, and he did have other women that he was supposedly so devoted to. Why shouldn't Jane have doubts? Still, this is the love of her life, and she doesn't want to go. But she is strong enough to know that it's the right thing to do for the sake of her own soul.
"A firey hand grasped my vitals. Terrible moment, full of struggle, blackness, burning. Not a human being that ever lived could wish to be loved better than I was loved."
Oh! What a gut-wrenching choice to make. It almost brings a tear to my eye thinking about it.
