It's #WorldGothDay, so here's a thread on how my favourite gothic mansion in literature has been depicted in film.
1943 Thornfield.

Pros: Black and white, gloomy and dramatic. You can almost touch the cobwebs. Bay windows, arches, candelabra galore.

Cons: Comes with Orson Welles. It's actually in America.

Shot in: 20th century Fox studios.

1970 Thornfield.

Pros: Great exteriors. Great fireplace. Those faded late 60s / early 70s colours have a certain gloomy charm.

Cons: Comes with George C. Scott. The abomination that is Rochester’s armchair.

Shot in: Ripley Castle, North Yorkshire.

1983 Thornfield.

Pros: Comes with Timothy Dalton. The corner of the garden in the proposal scene looks dreamy.

Cons: Tight shots make it suffocating. Sometimes it looks like the interior of an 80s furniture shop. Needs more gothic.

Shot in: Deene Park, Northamptonshire.
