If you loved Great Expectations, try Ryan's Daughter
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by David Lean, and they both carry the bittersweet, slow burn, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Great Expectations, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Ryan's Daughter is
Apparently someone thought Ireland needed more romance. A married schoolteacher begins an affair with a British officer. It achieves a gentle, old-fashioned charm.
