If you loved The Man in the Iron Mask, try Great Expectations

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 Mike Newell, and they both carry the bittersweet, outsider mood tags. If that's the register that drew you to The Man in the Iron Mask, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

Pip gets a fortune with strings attached. He’s sent to London, where a bridal-cake recluse and her icy protégé put him through emotional obstacle courses. The real villain? Good taste.
