Nicholas Nickleby (Tragedy, Family, School, Poverty, Adaptation)
  
PLOT: Young Nicholas Nickleby (Charlie Hunnam) and his family have a promising life, until Nicholas' father dies and the family is left penniless. Nicholas ventures to London with his sister and mother to seek help from their Uncle Ralph (Christopher Plummer), but Ralph's only intentions are to separate the family and exploit them. Nicholas is sent to a school run by the cruel, abusive and horridly entertaining Wackford Squeers. Eventually, Nicholas runs away with schoolmate Smike (Jamie Bell), and the two set off to reunite the Nickleby family. Also starring Anne Hathaway. AUTHOR: Charles Dickens
