Stylishly directed by Alfonso Cuaron, Great Expectations (1998) adds a modern American twist to the Classic 19th Century English tale by Charles Dickens. The story is boldly revamped, finding young Finn Bell pursuing unrequited love and desire with the beautiful Estella from Gulf Coast Florida to the streets of the Big Apple. The film offers wonderful glimpses at the New York City art world and renowned painter Francesco Clemente provided the film's artwork. The cast does a great job all-around, including Ethan Hawke, Anne Bancroft, Chris Cooper, Robert De Niro and Hank Azaria. However, the lovely Gwyneth Paltrow steals the show in her stunning and seductive role as Estella.
