The probable reason why the movie failed to satisfy its viewers was the fact that the novel was the author’s own innovation, based on original thought; whereas, the movie was just a visual sequel of Dickens’s magnum opus on the silver screen. Moreover, where the plot of Great Expectations demonstrated the literary figure’s creative genius, it also well blended his two diversified predispositions. Charles Dickens’s ability to analyze closely and his keen sense of observation pertaining to non-living things as well as living species including human beings is one factor. The other, his rather powerful inclination, which overshadows his former tendency, is towards pitiful and hilarious glorified ideals. This harmonization of the two propensities has been aptly and equally remarkably figured out as well as carried out by the director of the movie.
