The Personal History of David Copperfield
This is an absolutely brilliant film. A completely new, comic, and charming version of the Dickens novel where the autobiographical aspect of the storyline has David writing the novel as we watch it performed - even to the extent of difficult characters fully engaged in writing themselves out (Dora) - in a surreal world full of words and imagination.
And Armando Iannucci - also brilliant - in everything he does (or so it seems to me).
