| This is a nice family movie that is worthwhile watching more than once not only by its great music but by Clifton Webb's acting. I hope to be able sometime within the near future to obtain a copy in DVD format. |

| First, a word of warning to the modern viewer: If you are the type of viewer who cannot stand the overacting, dramatically altered 'Hollywood' ending, and absurdly ostentatious soundtrack score inherent to any film released in the 1940s, you may choose to look elsewhere for an adaptation of Dickens.
If, however, you are able to accept the limitations and imperfections of the decade in which this was created, you will see a beautifully filmed masterpiece. Some of the camera work in this work ... Read More: |

| The story of a prominent and wealthy Jewish family, whose feud with a Roman friend nearly destroys them. An extremely emotional story against the backdrop of the birth and crucifixion of Jesus Christ is one of the greatest epics ever filmed. The chariot race is one of the most impressive and longest action pieces I've ever seen! That sequence alone takes the film out of the realm of greatness into an outstanding piece of visual cinema! |

| It's one of the very first movies I ever remember seeing as a very little girl. And Thomasina looks just like my old cat, Ginger. |

| A beautiful print of this good film. The film is not quite as good as the original book though. But decent, considering that Mervyn Leroy was behind the wheel of this super-production, so it could hardly fail. The best is the crisp and beautiful cinematography, the real sets, the colors, the whole spectacle of it. The weakest is the shortage of running time: the story has been shortened way to much from the original. There is no time for transitions, no character development. The heroine meets the hero and in no time ... Read More: |

| From the opening scenes, director Richard Sale makes you aware that this is not going to be a "pretty" film. With the small shot of a simple sea mine floating in the water transforming into a classic 1950s explosion with horrific screams of passengers, Sale again reminds you that this is not going to be a typical Hollywood disaster film. As a reviewer, I must remind those reading that this is not a pretty picture - do not expect your typical film where the heroine always makes good decisions and those that are made do not ...

| I saw this movie in the theater when it came out in 1950 and Robert Newton's iconic portrayal of Long John Silver has stayed with me ever since! Something made me think about it a few weeks ago and I was delighted to find that it was available on DVD, but with some trepidation because so many old movies like this have not aged well and disappointed on seeing again. Fear not, me hearties, this one is the best! I've had it 3 weeks and I've watched it 3 times already, even though I have 2 other DVDs bought at the same time that I haven't even ... Read More: |

| A good video to understand the history of the Roman Empire. This video was instrumental in helping my child understand the history of what happened during this era. |
