Yes, there have been several movie adaptations of Charlotte Brontë's novel "Jane Eyre." The most well-known versions include the 1943 film with Orson Welles and Joan Fontaine, the 1996 version with Charlotte Gainsbourg and William Hurt, and the 2011 film starring Mia Wasikowska and Michael Fassbender.
There are a tons, personally I would recommend either the version with Timothy Dalton as Mr. Rochester or the 2006 BBC version will Ruth Wilson as Jane. To find other versions just go to Jane Eyre on Wikipedia.
Probably not. The director died in 1986 and the foreign copyright would last for 70 years after that, in most countries.
In the USA it was released in 1944 with proper copyright notice, which gave it 28 years of copyright. If that was properly renewed, then the movie received copyright duration of 95 years from publication, i.e., 1944 + 95 -> until December 31, 2039.
Well I know of the movies made in 1933, 1943, 1970,1973, 1983, 1996,1997, 2006....and the upcoming one is in march 2011.......personally i think it would be nice if they made a sequel to the 2006 one instead of telling the same story again and again.
