A cast of great character actors truly inhabit their richly comic and moving roles with unabashed gusto. This is Dickens at his most colourful and entertaining.
The cast includes Dev Patel, Peter Capaldi, Hugh Laurie, Tilda Swinton, Ben Whishaw and Paul Whitehouse.
This screening will (as always) be introduced by Barry Purves with informed trivia, anecdotes and some background of the production.
