this is one of the best Great Expectations I've seen and Alec Guinness has a part in t when he's so young you wouldn't recognize him. The ending is modified slightly from the book but it doesn't detract from either the book or the movie. And it skips over parts which are not critical to the story.
Ethan Hawke commented on the film's release that it had the bad fortune to overlap with the release of Titanic, which premiered in theatres six weeks before Great Expectations. He stated that "nobody gave a shit about anything but Titanic for about 9 months after...particularly another romance."
Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, and Great Expectations all start with the hero/protagonist as a child. Only young Oliver Twist of the three I mentioned ended still a child in the novel's conclusion. In Oliver Twist, young Oliver is reunited with his propertied and somewhat wealthy grandfather looking to rise in station from his humble background.
