A tale using Dickens' Little Dorrit as its centerpoint, combining the tale of a director; his wife who is having an affair; an arcade manager who has to close his shop; a young man who finds himself involved with a university professor (whose writing the screenplay for the director0; and the young man's girlfriend who becomes tangled in a personality at a seance. Sounds very improbable, but highly effective--I wanted to do nothing so very much as read Little Dorrit. ( ) Kind of depressing. He introduces a disparate group of characters and draws them all into his story about a filmmaker making a movie of Little Dorrit in the area when the Marshalsea prison was. It is well done but it was sad, and while perhaps realistic it didn't hold out much hope for people changing & growing. Instead many, particularly the 2 main woman characters, were hurt & destroyed. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Spenser Spender wants to make a film of Dickens' Little Dorrit using a contemporary London prison as a set. But he is not the only person interested in Dickens. Unwittingly he becomes the catalyst for bizarre meetings, coincidences and events, culminating in an apocalyptic conflagration. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
