I saw one version of "Jane Eyre" and wasn't too impressed at the time. I also saw parts of "Rebecca" once - can't recall much of it.
I thouht Hitchcocks "Rebecca" was brilliant! if you like older movies and can't remember much of it, i would urge you to watch it again.
Technically its a musical, but Joel Schumacher's "The Phantom of the Opera" starring Gerard Butler and Emmy Rossum is absolutely stunning and the music fits it perfectly! its based off Gaston Lereaux's 1911 novel of the same title, but the movie may actually have been better than the book in my opinion.
