Admirable film.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Outstanding work, Mr. Fiennes! Everyone loves to happen upon a film and be delightfully surprised to find it's a treasure! Your work is a startlingly underrated film directed by a gifted hand. with no weak links. All elements of the film are strong: Acting, directing, editing, script, costume, lighting and set design harmonize to do justice to the subject matter. Creative license was with a light touch; casting was spot-on. A good director has an ear for dialogue; a great director an ear for silence. Mr. Fiennes, heartfelt thanks for your refreshing use of silence in the movie. Also, thank you for allowing your supporting actors to shine. All actors forgot themselves in their roles, no one chewed the scenery This was due to expert casting and direction.Do I believe a familiarity with the life of Charles Dickens and his work contribute to an enjoyment of this film? Yes. Am I sympathetic towards those who do not know the work of Dickens or his contemporaries? No.

Now this really did feel like such a type of cliché, the type of British period piece that puts people to sleep. it sounds like quite a lazy criticism, and in a way it is, but it comes down to that. This was just not very interesting, and as a result, kind of dull. It's not "bad" though so I feel like I owe it at least some stars, and the acting is good and the technical aspects very good as well. I just wish it was better as a film overall. Fiennes is good, but jones is really the heart and soul of the film and remains a very interesting, captivating performer that I hope to see a lot of in the future. So yes, I don't really recommend this, but it's definitely an admirable effort from all involved.

In the mid 1800's, Charlie Dickens (Ray Fiennes) is the equivalent of a modern day movie star. His books are read by many, many folks and he also dabbles in theater productions with a close friend (Tom Hollander). At home, he is a good father to his ten children but, alas, his wife and he are more friends than amorous creatures. This is sad to Mr. Dickens, for he, at 45, is still quite in love with love making. Into his life comes an all female family of performers, the Ternans. Mama Frances (Kristin Scott Thomas) and her three daughters are eeking out a meager but respectable living acting in various plays for the London crowd. The two older daughters are quite talented but the youngest, Nelly (Felicity Jones), in spite of being very beautiful, struggles to remember lines and display vibrant emotions. Nevertheless, audiences cheer her for her loveliness. Slowly, Dickens becomes enamored with Nelly, coming to her performances and making efforts to visit the family. Yet, 18 year old Nelly is most reluctant to enter into a relationship where marriage is not possible. To demonstrate his love for the lady, Dickens makes a public announcement of his separation from his wife. This is quite scandalous for the times. Will Nelly, who does indeed fancy Dickens and vastly admires his work, relent and declare her love for Charles? This beautiful film is fact-based, as Dickens did have an "invisible woman" beyond the vows of his marriage. As the two main principals, Fiennes and Jones are wonderful. Fiennes also deserves praise for the film's very adept direction. Hollander, Scott-Thomas, and all of the lesser actors are engaging as well. Add on stunning costumes, admirable sets and a polished script and this is a movie serious fans will cherish. If you are one of these, make visible efforts to find it.

Here we have yet another costume drama about the hugely talented artist who benefits from the social injustices of his day to sleep with the woman he wants. Haven't we seen that before? However, given Dickens's reputation as the tireless champion of the poor and downtrodden, it is pretty horrifying to watch him for two hours making the most of his social status to have his ways with a poor innocent, fatherless girl half his age. Surprisingly, there is not one ounce of passion in this movie to explain her infatuation with him. Nor is there much social commentary other than the quotes from Dickens himself, whose character the film casts such doubts on. However, there is an endless supply of period gowns and props and sun-drenched garden scenes to lighten the mood. I don't think this is a very good film, but if it is truthful, it is probably an important one in that it certainly puts the character of Charles Dickens in a new light.
