“The Old Curiosity Shop,” a film based on the story by Charles Dickens, is a wonderfully amusing tale set in old England. This film was enjoyable but drags a bit in a few scenes. The ending also seems rather abrupt as if there is supposed to be a part two to the film. It should be noted that some of the film’s old English dialect makes it difficult to understand what the actors are saying. The themes in the film are a bit more mature as a few of them had a lot to do with money. This film is much better suited for children twelve and above. There are interesting characters in the film, such as little Nell and the grandfather. And the English charm to match. Dove is proud to award “The Old Curiosity Shop” the Dove Seal.
