GREAT EXPECTATIONS
starstarstarstar
Recast as a tale of erotic obsession and shallow celebrity, Charles Dickens' Great Expectations becomes director Alfonso Cuaron's (Y Tu Mama Tambien) sadly lush ode to exploited youth, a visual feast that never loses sight of the bitter toll the plot's twists and turns take on its characters. Ethan Hawke stars as an artist who still holds a candle for the rich girl (Gwyneth Paltrow) who stole his heart when both were still only children. Read the complete review for Great Expectations
