I really don't like Great Expectations. So naturally there are going to be two new adaptations of it next year.

First up we have the BBC's effort which stars Gillian Anderson as Miss Havisham. The trailer is wonderfully atmospheric and contains a haunting version of "Carol of the Bells"...

That's the Home Alone version of Carol of the Bells - probably my favourite.

Cool! Thanks for letting me know.

You know, I'm actually not sure I've seen even one adaptation of Great Expectations. I think I may go for the Helena Bonham-Carter version.

HBC does seem like perfect casting. It'll be interesting to see what she does with the role.
