My main comment is in regards to the visual style of Bleak House. I have a big hair up my butt about overuse of hand-held cameras and this production is particularly guilty of this, given that the look of the sets, actors, and period would be wonderful were it not spoiled by being filmed almost 100% by someone standing there with a hand-held, wavering, moving, too close in, no scene composition, good editing not a factor. Terrible. It is a cheap way to film though.
This is perhaps the most grievous use of handhelds in a film I've ever seen because the acting and script are so great.
Not a factor for some though ..... if so, very worth watching for the acting and script. As for me, I might not make it past the first episode.
