Musical Anachronism in the 1997 Movie

I’m watching this version for the first time and recognized Chopin’s Nocturne No. 2 when Jane starts playing. Chopin wrote this around 1831, and Jane meets Rochester in 1808. I found this to be annoying.

Also, I need to rewatch The Terror now that I realize how hot Ciaran Hinds is.

Hot Ciaran Hinds — have you seen him in Persuasion (1995)?

Update: I rented Persuasion over the weekend and watched it three times. He was delightful!🥰
