            Jane Eyre (portrayed as a child by Anna Paquin and as an adult by Charlotte Gainsbourg) is an independent and strong minded young woman who is hired by Mr. Rochester (William Hurt) to work as a governess. What she does not realize is that she must share the estate (and ultimately Mr. Rochester) with his wife, Bertha (Maria Schneider), who is, by this point in her life, mentally ill and kept locked away in an upstairs attic.
    

Jane Eyre


            Based on Sid Fleishman's wonderful novel for children, this film depicts the unlikely friendship between a spoiled prince and his "whipping boy." When the orphan Jemmy is roughly plucked from the streets of London and taken to serve in the palace, he has no idea what's in store for him. He soon discovers that he is fated to serve as the spoiled prince's "whipping boy"-- a boy who takes the prince's punishments in his place. Since it is forbidden to spank the heir to the throne, Jemmy is forced to endure these punishments himself. Sick of the humiliation of these countless spankings (not to mention his ever-sore bottom), Jemmy decides to run away from the palace. When the Prince decides to accompany him, everything goes wrong. Jemmy and the Prince soon find themselves in the hands of two common criminals, who decide to kidnap the two runaways in hopes of receiving a ransom. However, when the criminals mistake Jemmy for the Prince (and vice versa), they commit a dreaded a mistake, delivering a spanking to the Prince himself.
