    Beautiful black and white, especially the stormy night shots. However, the plot beautifies the protagonist too much, and there is a big problem with the casting: a group of people cooperate with the male protagonist to "play small", which makes us look very dramatic, but Jean Simmons has the pride of playing little Estella (like Vivien Leigh).

Great Expectations quotes

  • Pip: Mr. Wemmick, I don't quite know what to make of Mr. Jaggers.

    Mr. Wemmick: He don't mean that you should know what to make of him. Deep, that's what he is, as Australia.

    Pip: Who was that he shouted at so fiercely in the office?

    Mr. Wemmick: That was his housekeeper, name of Molly. He got her off on a murder charge.

    Pip: Murder? Isn't he frightened of having her about?

    Mr. Wemmick: Not him. When you come to see us again, take a good look at her.

    Pip: Shall I see anything very uncommon?

    Mr. Wemmick: You'll see a wild beast tamed. Keep your eye on it.

  • Pip: Why are you going to Richmond, Estella?

    Estella: I am going to live, at a great expense, with a lady there who has the power or so she has of taking me about and introducing me, and showing people to me, and showing me to people.

    [sipping tea]

    Pip: You'll have a gay time and be much admired. You must look forward to that, Estella.

    Estella: It's part of Miss Havisham's plan for me, Pip. I shan't take any great pleasure in events which I don't shape, but I shall be beautiful and I shall be gay, I shall be obedient and I shall write regularly of my gaiety.

    Pip: Will you always be part of Miss Havisham's plan, Estella?
