DRIVE-IN. From birth to infancy, from adolescence to adulthood, the good-hearted David Copperfield is surrounded by kindness, wickedness, poverty and wealth, as he meets an array of remarkable characters in Victorian England. As David sets out to be a writer, in his quest for family, friendship, romance and status, the story of his life is the most seductive tale of all.
"Armando Iannucci’s souped-up, trimmed-down adaptation of the Dickens novel is an exuberant, heartfelt delight." NY Times
"This teeming film sometimes bursts at the seams, but it's abound with an exuberant energy that honors Dickens without embalming him in the literary past." Rolling Stone
From start to finish, this retelling of Charles Dickens' classic novel is a delight. "Colorful" and "laugh-out-loud funny" aren't terms immediately associated with Dickens' original story." Common Sense Media
