Movie Reviews of Moll Flanders
Movie Review: Forget the Title and Just Enjoy the Movie!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I knew nothing about this movie or the book that it's name is taken from when I watched it. I'm a big fan of both Morgan Freeman and Stockard Channing and that was all I needed to know. I found it charming and moving. Excellent casting and good performances by all characters. Having enjoyed the movie so much, I was anxious to read Defoe's novel of (basically) the same title. As a fan of classic literature, I enjoyed the book and could not see how the name had been lent to the movie. You cannot compare the two except for VERY MINOR similarities, so don't bother trying! I think this movie will be enjoyed by any fan of period films; any fan of the main stars; and any fan of a touching drama. If it didn't share the name of a great novel, it might have been well known as a great movie.Movie Review: Moll Flanders DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm fully satisfied with the product. Shipping and delivery conditions were perfect, even faster than expected. The only thing I was a bit upset about were the subtitles. The DVD provided just French or Spanish subtitles. Since I teach English to Italian students and I use films a lot in my classes, (especially the ones taken from famous English and American novels) I find very useful to have subtitles in English. But this was maybe my fault: I should have looked at this in advance. I wouldn't have bought it if I had known but surely I would have missed a very good film. And students wouldn't have challenged a "no subtitles" experience.Movie Review: This can easily become your favorite movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
Robin Wright gives an outstanding performance as Moll Flanders. She portrays Moll as a strong, independent woman on the outside with a tender girl looking for love on the inside. The support of Morgan Freeman and Stockard Channing add the spice to the movie, as Hibble with a heart of gold and Mrs. Allworthy with a heart of ice. The cinematography sets the tone for the world that Moll lived in, the streets of 18th Century London, which was not pretty. This has a twist ending which you may not expect, which makes me love the movie even more.Movie Review: Heartwarming tale of the human spirit
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful story of one woman's journey toward true understanding of love, of God, and of her place in the world. Robin Wright Penn, Morgan Freeman and Stockard Channing all give excellent performances, and the score, costumes and sets are a beautiful backdrop for this outstanding cast. I have never read the book, but this film has merit all its own. You will admire Moll for her unflagging courage, her pluck, and her devotion to those she loves. Moll Flanders is one of my favorite movies of all time.Movie Review: The last performance of Jeremy Brett
Summary: 5 Stars
I love the novel "Moll Flanders"; the movie has little in common with this masterpiece; yet, it is entertaining, interesting in a way, and above all, Jeremy Brett performed in this movie his last part, as the father of the artist. He was terribly ill and worn out, but the moment when he appears is one of the strongest in the movie. To get Jeremy Brett awarded a posthumous and overdue Bafta, see facebook, "posthumous BAFTA for Jeremy Brett"
