Movie Description
A rising artist, flourishing with the help of a benefactor, falls fruitlessly in love with his wealthy childhood playmate, who has grown to be a beautiful coquette. But the nefarious influence of her eccentric, spiteful maiden aunt taints their relationship. A stylish, heavily romantic updating of the eponymous Dickens classic, staged in 1970s south Florida. Bancroft, as the "Miss Havisham" character, steals the show.

      The Movie was AMAZING. Much better Than the Book
    Review created: 08/22/08
    14 of 14 people found this review helpful.

    In full color, the scenes were very beautiful, and how the characters were played/displayed, were just amazing. It was certainly better than the book. The only thing i didnt like was the ending, and who Estella married. Honestly, i would've liked to see her marrry Pip, but that's a minor to me, and would still give it 5 stars.
