There is enough action in the
Universal-International release
for a Observation-Disclosures saga,
enough young and beautiful ro-
lance for a tender love story,
Id enough cobwebs and horror
for a mystery picture. But all
are presented with complete re-
straint, and all are in excellent
taste.
Adapted from Charle e S
Dickens great novel, the film
prominently displays the talents
of two of England's best players
in the starring roles, John Mills
and Valerie Hobson. The stars,
along with a technically and
emotionally perfect supporting
cast make the picture one of the
finest viewed in recent years.
The story tells of Pip, black
smiths apprentice, who as
child befriends an escaped con-
vict with food before the fugi-
tive's recapture, and is in turn
befriended by an eccentric
.Homan. The woman, who has

He believes the old woman has

to live as a gentleman.
Meanwhile, Estella, whom Pip
loves, announces she plans to
marry another. Pip then learns
1t was the escaped convict, now
a wealthy Australian, who has
adopted him, and in addition,
that EStella Is the daughter of

When Estella learns of her an

This vast, encyclopedia drama
