Mister Quilp
1975
Mister Quilp is a 1975 British musical film directed by Michael Tuchner and starring Anthony Newley, David Hemmings and Jill Bennett.[1] It is based on the 1841 novel The Old Curiosity Shop by Charles Dickens, under which name it was also released.
The film was one of several "Family Classics" made into modern musical films by Reader's Digest.[2] Mr. Quilp was theatrically distributed by EMI Films in the United Kingdom and by Avco Embassy Pictures in the USA. In the VHS and Beta formats, it was released by Magnetic Video under the title The Old Curiosity Shop, though this release was heavily edited down by roughly 30 minutes.[3] Viewers in the UK have reported seeing it played on television in the 1980s.[4] To date, the film has never been officially released on DVD.
Critic Roger Ebert gave the film a mixed review, praising the music an Newley's performance, but criticizing the decision to center the film around the titular evil money-lender and failing to make the story compelling enough to hold interest.[5]
