Customer Reviews of Moll Flanders (1996)
Surprisingly good I have never read the novel this is based on so my review is purely on the movie. I tuned in accidently to first watch this on TV and it caught my attention. <

>The story being told to the girl was a great way to break up the story going back in time to Moll as she struggles to get out of the brothel and turns to drink. Since she turns to drink she is cheap to buy and thus great for the artist who needs a cheap model. Moll becomes his model and he falls for her and with time she also falls for him. But their happiness doesn't last long and Moll finds herself again faced with her past. <

>Beautifully acted and the costumes and sets are devine. A story on the darker side of history. <

>Recommended if you like a tale of adventure, love, betrayal and a mean-spirited villian :-)
A Beautiful Film NOT Based Upon The Book Of The Same Name
Many people (including others who reviewed this film) have made the mistake of comparing this movie to the book of the same name by Daniel Defoe. If you all watched the opening credits a little more closely, you would notice that this movie is based on Defoe's CHARACTER Moll Flanders NOT his book. It has become apparent to me that people have drawn the wrong conclusions. The filmmakers simply took the character of Moll Flanders and put her in their own story. Their intention was not to recapture Defoe's book, but to recapture his character. They did an amazing job. The acting in this film is superb. The main characters are so strong, and the writing is simply beautiful. The film itself is beautiful to look at as well. It's an emotional story that is told in such an interesting way. I saw it for the first time on television, and knew that I had to have a copy to own. If you like period pieces with strong heroines then I would highly recommend this one.
HOLLYWOOD vs. MASTERPIECE THEATRE
Don't waste your money on a bad replacement when you can see a MASTERPIECE.
