Brooding on a remote beach, a young man thinks back on his difficult life growing up as an orphan child, from being brought to London against his will, to constantly moving homes, to his challenges at a boarding school. This famous, star-studded adaptation of Charles Dickens's beloved novel was released as a television movie in the United States and in theaters in the United Kingdom. It uses a series of flashbacks to tell the story of David Copperfield's rise from childhood poverty to success as a writer. ( Richard Attenborough, Cyril Cusack, Edith Evans, Pamela Franklin, Susan Hampshire, Wendy Hiller, Michael Redgrave )
