David Copperfield – Einmal Reichtum und zurück: Directed by Armando Iannucci. With Fisayo Akinade, Nikki Amuka-Bird, Albie Atkinson, Aneurin Barnard. A modern take on Charles Dickens’s classic tale of a young orphan who is able to triumph over many obstacles.

“I finally finished the novel today, after months of hiding from the trailer for this film, and I was thrilled to watch. I understand that a lot of things are going to be changed and condensed from a 900 page novel into a 2 hour movie but boy, they made nearly all of the opposite decisions I wouldu0026#39;ve made on what to keep and what to throw away. Mr. Dick mustu0026#39;ve gotten 10 times the screen time as Peggotty and Mr. Peggotty who were two of my favourite characters in the novel. In the beginning, I really enjoyed the whimsical nature, however, the whimsy seems to have disappeared after the first half, leaving me to wonder why it was added at all? I loved the diversity in the cast, and what a cast it was, but wow.. just a really disappointing adaptation of a beautiful novel.”
