A new U.K. trailer for Mike Newell's adaptation of Charles Dickens' Great Expectations has been released, and while it's certainly a handsome film with a noteworthy cast, I'm still seeing little reason to get excited over it. We've just seen this story far too often with nothing new brought to the table, and based on some of the early reviews of it out of Toronto have been a little soft. It seems to just be another workmanlike adaptation, and nothing more. That may be a large part of the reason why the film has no distribution here in the States. It possibly never will.
Anyway, Great Expectations stars Helena Bonham Carter, Ralph Fiennes, Jeremy Irvine, Holliday Grainger, Jason Flyming, Robbie Coltrane, and Sally Hawkins. Check out the trailer below....[Vlicious!]
