David Copperfield – Captures

I have added captures of Hugh in the 2000 film David Copperfield to our photo archive.

The plot follows relatively closely to that of the book, although the film highly condenses Steerforth’s liaison with Emily and the Peggotty family to primarily off-screen action, as in the 1935 version, and omitting the famous “tempest” scene, likely due to budget constraints. An extra plotline placing emphasis on the Murdstone siblings is also included, so that David is tormented by their appearance throughout his life, and eventually violently confronts them near the ending, a scene not present in the book. Some scenes are simplified as well; for instance, Uriah Heep’s cunning and complex embezzlement scheme from the book is changed to a very simple plotline involving stolen diamonds. However, this film stresses the relationship between David, Agnes, and Uriah much more than in previous adaptations. – [Purchase on Amazon]
