I just saw the Fortunes and Misfortunes of Moll Flanders and really liked it. It is an adaptation of a novel by Daniel Dafoe that originally came out in 1722. I saw another adaptation that came out the same year. It was simply called Moll Flanders, and I did not really enjoy it. I liked this adaptation a lot more. The film follows Moll Flanders as she moves up and back down in the world and as she moves from husband to husband.
I would definitely recommend this film. It is definitely the best adaptation that I have seen, and the performances from Alex Kingston and Daniel Craig were superb!
