guest, I find the whole adaptation too slow and stilted - but it's indeed the most faithful adaptation of the novel. And Count Fosco and Marian are great! This adaptation really gets these characters very well! It's quite clear that Count Fosco does really care for Marian. He doesn't want her to interfer, but he sincerely didn't want her to die!
Thanks so much for uploading. I was delighted to find the video as I enjoyed the book so much. Authors don't write such beautiful English nowadays, alas, so Wilkie Collins' novels are a valuable source of beautiful literature.
UTUBE.5.10.20. Woman In White.361 000 viewers. This is disgusting. No replies have ever been recd from anyone in UK re the 1000 emails we sent re the cover up re 30000 avoid deaths over 35 yrs. This film is a BBC effort. We spent over 20 yrs involved with that bunch arty ex University fools.When we statrted to explain what we were finding re Health.HM Police. HM Govt. HM Courts. Hm Bar Council. HM CPS. HM Coroners. he "friends" started to disappear rapidly.The public are infatuated with actors and its tim to put a stop to that fetish. How come the armies of psychologists. psychiatrists, sociologists never noticed the scam./ Its because its about swapping reality for fantasy and makin money and becoming "famous". Heres a bit of the back ground.I saw ten minutes of this before I realised who was behind it. So there seems to be a Mental Health issue involved. That makes sense for an org thats involved with MH system cover ups involving Clegg. Liberal Party. Cons Party. Lab Party. Charities like "Mind". The Lottery board. Uk govt 26 Universities.Hancock and many others.Heres a bit more. I suggest this- Would it be a good idea if the population stopped climbing on each others backs whilst; the establishment and their promoters the press sit there making fools out of you. Why do we declare that? Who are we. Why are we on here. This might ex-plain some of the questions.- - "Mental Health" ? Meaning, all health, all behaviour, all thoughts, all unconscious activity.

You remember don't you that Gates and others said this- "Everyone will be well off and there will be almost no crime". We have had no replies to 1000 mails, meanwhile 2.5 000 000 watch just one violent film on the internet. The Indictment.--We traipsed cent London streets in threadbare clothes after we had been told to stop resolving the mental health issues of clients after they had been sent to us as hopeless cases by the NHS. They had recd, in some cases 20 yrs of drugging and police violence. They needed 7 hours techniques that work. One of them had been unable to leave the house for ten years but did so after four hours. We were then told to stop because we were taking money away from all sorts of people inc bupa / charities and the councils chambers of trade who use victims as cheap labour. We then got ambulances and funeral services sent round and found the police trying to prise our windows open with a pen knife. We began to suffer police attacks which we eventually held off by the use bodyguards. We then started looking into all the establ orgs we could find. We were also, with the victims, searching for people who care about their fellow man. We found almost none. The most frequent response was 'its nothing to do with me'.The giant MH Hosp whose clients and staff were coming to us for help was contacted because we were alarmed that taxpayers were funding the incompetence. The woman shrink told us this- "competence has no value in MH". The staff sais this- "she has killed people and its been covered up by Police. HM Courts. HM Coroners. Local Govt. Media incl BBC. HM Govt. HM Political Orgs .and so on. The HM religion is behind that MH hosp.The BBC told us to "hide the 1000pp evidence abroad". We now realise that a key reason for the police and other attacks was the funding programs applied to charities and others. We also have found out that 26 Universities are also implicated. The very first victims who approached us warned us that because the Royals are behind the MH system we should not try to expose it because we could end up dead. We took victims to a Govt. Minister .He sat there lying and denying he had signed documents and when confronted by documents he had signed he offered the police. One of the victims had been locked in the horrific Mental Hosp against his will by among others the police.THe Minister could not even resolve his own issues and knew nothing of MH. Each time we exposed him huge pictures of him appeared in the corrpt Local Press, this activity is going on all over UK. Its costing billions in media costs alone. The evasive Local Govt boss in this area is ex Social Services and is being paid hundreds of thousands of pounds each year.No one in the area would help the victims and even their families were trying to prevent the bid for justice.The people in the area admit his is insane yet he controls the corrupt mental hospital.. That's the place whose clients and even staff were coming to us for help. We asked the Psychiatrist Manager why they were doing that and she said this- “Competence Has No Value In Mental Health”. The staff at that place told us this- “She Has Killed People And Its Been Covered Up By Local Police. Press. Media. Local Govt. HM Coroners". We could get no response from local media which incl the Dimbleby press where we encountered a so called journalist who was the daughter of a “friend” of ours who was a “Councillor”.. We endured death threats from the HM Court system because of the US based Pinkerton and Burns rgs who are the people who shot or beat up workers in the US who objected to the starvation wages. The US Embassy also offered violence. There's no lack of computers within the Police. US Embassy. Local Govt. HM House Commons. Health System. Firms like Lloyds Bank. Tesco. Asda. Aldi. Mail Mirror.

I've seen three versions of this novel, and "Bill Sykes" asks the right question. I've never seen anyone more perfectly cast as Count Fosco than Alan Badel. Sidney Greenstreet is a formidable Count Fosco in the 1948 Hollywood version, but Hollywood took such liberties with the story that I can't watch it straight through--and it's much shorter than this one! And not even Greenstreet's voice is as effective as Badel's, which is velvet masking malice.
The best adaptation of the book - fabulous casting, especially Fosco and Marian.

Oh this is marvellous, have been searching and looking for years to watch, it has made me more than overjoyed.

the book is brilliant, this film is just as good
Fosco was creepier and more disgusting in the book.
amazingsaint : Well said. Indeed he was.
They should have casted someone else for Count Fosco.
***** Who better than the legendary Alan Badel as Count Fosco?
I've seen three versions of this novel, and "Bill Sykes" asks the right question. I've never seen anyone more perfectly cast as Count Fosco than Alan Badel. Sidney Greenstreet is a formidable Count Fosco in the 1948 Hollywood version, but Hollywood took such liberties with the story that I can't watch it straight through--and it's much shorter than this one!

But also elegant, charming and more fat!
Oh, My; I can’t hack it.🙄
The ol switcheroo!?
