GREAT EXPECTATIONS
Sundance, 8:00 p.m. ET
This 1998 version of the Charles Dickens tale works best if you come to it with less than great expectations – but if so, there are two performances that make it quite worthwhile, and both of them are of the women who have the most effect upon Ethan Hawkes’ poor “Finnegan Bell.” Yes, the names are changed to protect the non-innocent (ain’t that a Pip?). The vengeful, man-hating reclusive Miss Havisham is now called “Ms. Dinsmoor,” and played by Anne Bancroft – while the other powerful female role, Estella, gets to keep her original name from the novel – and is played by Gwyneth Paltrow.
