Movie Reviews of David CopperfieldMovie Review: One of Those Great MGM Creations! Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the best Dickens adaptations on film and is done in exquisite style by MGM, director George Cukor and producer David O. Selznick. MGM spared no expense on this one with actors Freddie Bartholomew, Maureen O'Sullivan, Edna May Oliver, W.C. Fields and Bazil Rathbone among others. Everyone looks like they are having the time of their lives and know that they are making a great one. Roland Young seems to have to hold himself back from smiling half the time as Uriah Heap. I highly recommend this wonderful film. It is charming and the story is well told.
Movie Review: An all time classic "David Copperfield" Summary: 5 Stars
I really enjoyed this movie. YOu've got WC Fields as Micawber, Basil Rathbone as Mr. Murdstone, Edna Mae Oliver as Aunt Betsey, and Lionel Barrymore as Mr. Peggotty.
I think Edna Mae Oliver is the best Aunt Betsey I've seen. She really gives Murdstone an earful, and doesn't put up with any nonsense.
This film holds up very well for something from the mid '30s. The costumes are very authentic, just what Dickens would have wanted, I feel. It's a very good film adaptation.
Movie Review: Great adaption of classic book! Summary: 5 Stars
This film is a must own for all lovers of classic films. Not much more can be said. The actors play their roles flawlessly, but little Freddie Bartholomew's performance is TIMELESS!!! Before purchasing this film I had only seen it once, on television, about 18 years ago, but Mr. Bartholomew's perfomance stood out and I have been waiting for it to come out on dvd. I share my classic films with today's generation, and they all agreed that I must give this film five stars. Bravo!!

This is a great story.
For you old timers, this cast is the best ever.
They don't make them like this anymore.
I am very happy to have this one for my collection.
Movie Review: Pleased, and impressed with transfer quality Summary: 5 Stars
It is always nice to see a good job done when a VHS is made into a DVD, especially when the movie is as old as this one. Well done picture quality, on an excellent Charles Dicken's movie.
