Nicholas Nickleby
#12 in my movie challenge for the year was Nicholas Nickleby, which was highly praised by Roger Ebert when it came out years ago. My husband and I watched it over two nights. We enjoyed the first part, but then my new film guide arrived and I read a scathing review. We didn’t enjoy the second half nearly so much. Did the review jinx it, or did the weaknesses of the film become more apparent? In any case, don’t bother.
