Yes indeed; and some of the camerawork is extraordinary; I wonder whether we've lost that art somewhat moving to colour?

David Lean version?

If that is the Lean version? Yes. I watch most years too. The early scenes like you say - esp with Magwitch around the foggy Kent graveyard and river - are unneringly good..

Every year I watch this and I think the first 45 minutes are perhaps the greatest ever on film.
