Is this how it really happened? Who cares. It is a great, inspiring story in itself. The whole movie is great and the casting was perfect. Charles Dickens is a powerful character in every scene, not like super hero powerful, but how relatable the struggles he faces are. This is a must see - especially during the Christmas season.
What a deeply creative story about the making of the most beloved Christmas story of all time. Dan Stevens knocks it out of the park as Charles Dickens and the inventive script ties everything together perfectly without being trite. I’m adding this to my shortlist of Christmas favorites.
Enjoyable Christmas story about the life of Charles Dickens. Lively characters giving this timeless classic a new spin.
