Great Expectations
Within this Dickens adaptation,'' orphan Pip finds through lawyer Mr. Jaggers a mysterious benefactor wishes to make sure he becomes a gentle man. Reunited with his youth patron, Miss Havisham, and his first love, the beautiful but emotionally cold Estella, he finds that the elderly spinster went mad from being abandoned at the altar as a young woman, and has left her charge to a warped, unfeeling heartbreaker.
