Nell Trent lives with her grandfather, the proprietor of the Old Curiosity Shop. Grandfather has a disquieting secret, a gambling addiction fed by high-interest loans from the bully Daniel Quilp. The villainous Quilp wants to get possession of the shop, and Nell. In league with his lawyer Samson Brass and Samson's sister Sally, Quilp seizes Grandfather's assets. But Nell organizes an escape from the shop in the dead of night, and she and Grandfather begin a harrowing odyssey through the English countryside with their nemesis in hot pursuit. Convinced that there is a family fortune to be gained, Nell's brother Fred and his friend Dick Swiveller join in the chase. Meanwhile, Nell and Grandfather encounter a slew of eccentric characters, including Mrs. Jarley, who runs a lurid traveling waxworks where Nell and Grandfather earn a meager wage for a brief time. Nell and her grandfather are eventually forced to beg for survival. Will Nell's young friend Kit Nubbles and a mysterious stranger arrive in time to rescue the despairing duo?

| User ReviewSue BMoney....power...why humans are so blind upon this things? Money dosn't buy happiness not even the power. Is pathetic and stupid. I don't care if I wrote that right or wrong but it really makes me a bit mad. Anyway, Dickens as always makes me wonder if he was a human with open mind since all his stories critique a lot the human society, specially the one in London. Plot: Quilp wants money and looks for ways to get it. The Grandfather and Nell are the new targets of him. Why? Easy: Money. Both escape to get a better life but something will make them take a new path and maybe not a good one. Stars for the story-telling? Yes. A good adaptation? Have read many great reviews and I do not trust so much the ones in youtube since fans obviously are not good to trust lately hehe. Anyway, Dickens did a masterpiece and the script for this one was marvelous. Acting: No doubt the cast was magnific and extraordinary. Sophie as Nell nailed the role and was wonderfully great. Same Derek as Grandfather. Toby as Quilp (first time seeing this actor ACT since he did the voice of my favorite domestic elf, DOBBY) was scary, nasty and absolutly amazing! Gosh what an act! The rest of the cast was magnific as I wrote before. Zoe was great as always (almost screamed when I saw her on the screen Madame Houch or whatever you write that lol). Martin Freeman as puppet master (yes he was a person doing puppet theater) was incredible in his role I even laughed a bit even if I knew his role would evolved to one I would not like that much (people like this character exists and a lot). Anyway, stars for everyone even the extras, crew and director. Music: My tears enjoyed this part. Yes I cried at the very ending. The moral was perfect and the score marvelous. So yes, star for the musicians. To end this review, 4 stars of 5. Enjoy and HASTA LA PROXIMA AMIGOS/AS! CHAO! BLESS YOU ALL!!! |
| User ReviewAmanda HEvery once in a while, I find a BBC film that I really enjoy. This was not one of those times. I watched about half an hour and could not tolerate the boredom any more. Don't bother with this- unless you're looking for something to put you to sleep. |
