Just watched "Great Expectations", David Lean's film of Charles Dickens's novel. Very nicely done. Although, watching Alec Guiness and John Mills, surely when each was at least 35, playing 18-year-olds was a bit of a strain. On the other hand, watching Guiness play the slightly spacey Mr. Pocket was entertaining. A far cry from Obi Wan, that's for sure. If you haven't read the book, you should. Dickens was a brilliant writer.
