It's got to be that they speak to the audience Sparkling, vicious, romantic, whatever you need, it's there The Internet Movie Database lists 167 projects based on Dickens' works (Shakespeare has 494), stretching back to scenes from "Oliver Twist" adapted for short silent films in the late 1890s Since then, there have been David Lean's classic 1940s versions of "Great Expectations" and "Oliver Twist"; the musical "Oliver!", which won the best picture Academy Award for 1968; and multiple productions of "David Copperfield," "A Tale of Two Cities," "The Old Curiosity Shop" and "The Pickwick Papers," among others Not above them, not below them " Scenes from "Nicholas Nickleby" were made into film shorts during the silent-movie era "A Christmas Carol" alone has been filmed in endless variations, including Alastair Sim's perennial favorite 1951 version, Albert Finney's 1970 musical "Scrooge," Bill Murray's 1988 comedy "Scrooged," Vanessa Williams' recent TV take "A Diva's Christmas Carol," and incarnations featuring Mickey Mouse, the Muppets and Mr They look straight in your eyes and talk to you Prolific Dickens Adapted to Screen Dec 27, 1:51 AM EST This guy Dickens seems to be one of Hollywood's busiest writers Magoo "He writes wonderful dialogue `Nickleby' alone has 15, 18 characters who are just as vivid as they could be " Published in monthly installments, Dickens' tales presented earthy working-class characters, sharp commentary on ill treatment of the poor, and melodramatic cliffhangers that "teased the story out over time and were so seductive the audience would have to come back a month later and buy the next one," said Logan, whose credits include "Gladiator" and "Star Trek: Nemesis "You could argue that Dickens is the greatest storyteller," said Douglas McGrath, director of the new "Nicholas Nickleby," which stars Charlie Hunnam in the title role and features a huge ensemble cast including Christopher Plummer, Jim Broadbent, Nathan Lane, Jamie Bell and Anne Hathaway "With these kind of eponymous roles in Dickens, the title character often is the straight-laced one," said Hunnam, who plays Nicholas with an earnest naivete " For his version, which runs just over two hours, McGrath had to narrow the scope, dropping or reducing the roles of secondary characters and focusing on Nicholas " "He was getting inside the viscera of his characters, which is exactly what movies allow you to do and why we see his stuff on screen so many times," Logan said Appropriately for an author whose books can run to 800 or 900 pages, the list of Dickens adaptations is expansive Probably no author besides Shakespeare has had so many works produced for film and television as Charles Dickens, whose latest screen adaptation is a new version of "Nicholas Nickleby," which opens Friday " Dickens is a popular source for filmmakers because, like Shakespeare, he wrote for the masses, not a literary elite, said screenwriter John Logan, a Dickens enthusiast who owns a first edition of "David Copperfield You could argue he created more indelible characters than anyone else The plucky hero encounters rascally villains and colorful, kindhearted souls as he tries to make his fortune after his father leaves the family penniless With strong central characters around whom the action swirls, "Nicholas Nickleby," "Oliver Twist" and other early Dickens novels lend themselves more to film treatment than dense and diffuse later works such as "Bleak House," McGrath said "He leads you through this journey, this circus of characters Even when he's biding his time and just telling back story, his back story is more interesting than most people's front story |
