Hi! Today is January 30th,2012. I want to wish Jean Simmons a very Happy Birthday today. I know she is dead. But, she was a great actress.She played the young estelle in this version.She also played in the remake of Dark Shadows. She was mrs. collins, Barnabas's sister.Have you heard? Johnny Depp is supposed to play Barnabas in the new reamake?And i have the orginal music box from the 6o's Dark Shadows.I love that box to death. God knows how much my husband paid for it, or where he got it.
@CQAS5 I hope you'll mature and enjoy the book in your later years as many adults have. Us teenagers have got to stop eating "fast food" easily digestible books and start enjoying the masters.
I love this film because it begins on the Thames marshes near to where I live,the grave yard and black smith's cottage are based on places that still exist.
Dickens lived I the area also, and often walked on the marsh.
Thank you so much for posting this movie. It too is one of my all time favorites! It mimics the book almost exactly. If you havent read the book by Dickens please do so! What larks!
when i was young, i watched a b/w movie of the same story. i remember at the end, she told him ' you may kiss me, if you like'. It is not how it ends in this version. Who know which version I watched?
it seems the dvd of this film is pretty hard to get if you're in the US. if you go to amazon [dot] co [dot] uk you can pick it up for about 4 bucks (plus $3 shipping to the US) from their affiliated sellers.
They don't make films like this anymore, the acting and atmosphere is superb. I've just seen the remake of Brighton Rock and its not a scratch on the original.
thanks for showing; the dvd of this movie is waaay too expensive----if dvd sellers don't know enough to sell their movies for cheap than they deserve to lose busines to youtube....it's been over 20 years since i saw this movie last----but i wouldn't pay a lot to see it again....GLAD TO SEE IT HERE FOR FREE.
If you like this film, I'd recommend that you see the movies "The Apartment" with Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine, and "Captain Blood" starring Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland. Those movies are completely different from each other and this one, and yet, there is some feeling of hope triumphing over despair that ties all three of them together.
@alienspectre Anybody who remembers and recommends The Apartment can do no wrong in my book. I know that there was a great deal of junk produced back in the B&W days but sometimes they transcended and The Apartment was one of those occasions. What I wouldn't give to see it for the first time again.
Thank you so much for posting this wonderful film.One of my all time favourites.But it is Abel Magwitch that 'steals' the book and the film as well.Film making at it's best
