A modern version of Dickens.

Sinekatalog’s take

Alfonso Cuarón's modern Dickens sets Pip in Florida and New York with lush, sensual visuals. The performances are mixed, but the photography and mood are beautiful, and the film is more atmosphere than fidelity.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
