JOHN REED (CONT'D)
Rat.
He exits. Jane breathes a sigh of relief. She slowly pulls
the curtain across, making the window a private sanctuary.
There is a book lying on the seat. She opens it.
CUT TO:
Jane is sitting cross-legged, completely absorbed in her
book - a beautifully drawn picture of a cormorant. She runs
her finger over it. We hear the sound of great waves
plunging on to a shore.
EXT. DAY. AN ARCTIC COAST.
Jane, aged ten, is sitting cross-legged on an isolated
rock, her eyes locked with those of a stooping black
cormorant. St John's voice comes from a long way away.
ST JOHN (V.O.)
Diana, Mary help me get her
upstairs...
The cormorant raises its wings like a great black cloak.
Jane watches as it takes off and flies away.
Jane Eyre adapted by Moira Buffini March 2008 7.
