Lovers of Dickens will be pleased to see this reproduction of one of his great stories. It is one thing to read the story, getting into as close sympathy as possible with the characters, and quite another to see those characters step out of a book and perform their parts with all the life and animation with which one's imagination may have endowed them. While the writer of this confesses to an inability to say whether all the minor details of the picture are in accord with the facts, he does not hesitate to say that it seems to depict it as he understands it in its main features. There is a wealth of scenery and staging which is supposed to be historically correct and probably is, as near so as possible now. Perhaps the principal thing to be considered is the fuller appreciation of the author's work which will follow this illustration. To see one's book live and move is well worth while, but not until the motion picture came was it possible. The adequate production of the work of great authors helps the cause of literature and plays an important part in the development of literary taste among thousands who perhaps never had the opportunity or time to read the works presented. - The Moving Picture World, August 27, 1910
