Mr Pip
Film (Trailer) – 2013
We’ve all lost a lot in recent times. Those losses remind ourselves of the things we can never lose: our minds and our imaginations ... and our great expectations.– Mr Watts (Hugh Laurie)
It was the most challenging film I’ve ever made. It’s a very dense film with a lot of different threads. At one point I found that I was trying to make two films, and the story became too weighted towards Great Expectations and took away from the foreground drama.– Director Andrew Adamson in The Listener, 5 September 2013
