Great Expectations ***** (1946, John Mills, Valerie Hobson, Tony Wager, Valerie Hobson, Jean Simmons, Bernard Miles, Finlay Currie, Alec Guinness, Martita Hunt, Francis L Sullivan) – Classic Movie Review 843
Director David Lean’s truly great, double Oscar-winning 1946 version of the Charles Dickens novel Great Expectations is still the best version on film. It is even perhaps the best Dickens movie ever. The famous story centres on the […]

The charismatic Charles Laughton’s expertly judged, delightfully quirky and magnetically larger-than-life performance as 19th-century shop owner Henry Hobson is a greatly loved, career-peak for this admired actor. It is the heart and soul and central […]
