David Copperfield - 76 years ago 12 Years, 10 Months ago
On BBC2 now - with many marvellous ingredients - Basil Rathbone is fabulously nasty; WCFields extraordinary; two elements of the past - Dickens and early (over acted) movies combined.

A splendid movie - wonderfully old fashioned but proving that a great story - like a great melody in music - is the essential ingredient for a good film. Funnily enough the one actor who did NOT over act (and was wonderful) was the man playing Uriah Heep - very nicely under stated - every portrayal since has made him even more slimy and 'umble.
