This is one of my FAVORITE movies! It pushed me to go right out and buy the book (which I'm still working on to this day...). I LOVE this speech, I rewind several times to hear it again and again, and it gets me every time! And Mr. Folair FINALLY gets to do his Highland Fling! 😂 Mmm, Alan Cumming in a kilt? Yes, please!
I just finished another annual Christmas viewing of the Royal Shakespeare Company's early eighties stage production and its ending also brought tears but in a much different manner. While I'll always favor that adaptation of the story, I remember seeing this adaptation in a small independent theatre and enjoying it very much. Whichever of its many adaptations one sees and prefers, Charles Dickens wrote a wonderful story.
It does indeed appear in these 2 films, TV series, adverts and even an Irish pop video. I now live at the top of this park but was born in this cottage. I had an idyllic childhood living there.
@@caroladdison4005 you’re joking! Really! You lucky thing, I also recently saw it in one of the versions of Oliver twist so it’s been into Dickensian stories.
Yes, that's right it was in the Oliver Twist series. It was also in an episode of My Uncle Silas with Albert Finney and Bryan Pringle. Now the cottage can currently be seen on Netflix in the opening scenes for Half Bad.
@@caroladdison4005 I haven’t heard of those other ones! It certainly has seen a lot of action hasn’t it LOL I bet when the house was made no one ever imagined it would become so famous.
Sadly Nathan Lane claims to be retired from musical comedy, but I truly wish I could have seen him in another Dickens inspired work, as the Chairman in the musical of The Mystery of Edwin Drood.
This brilliant movie should come out every Christmas.All the cast was wonderful.
That ending speech by Nathan Lane was marvelous and I adore that saying. This is one of my favorite movie/book.
Watching this scene, and its combination of wonderful words, music, and visual beauty makes me happy.

I was so happy that he got to do it! Yes!
One of the best scenes in the movie and understood by anyone who has lost a parent early and tried to compensate I bet.
Ah so wholesome!
Climbed to my top 3 movies ever.
Charles Dickens certainly knew how to pull at the heartstrings simply by his play on words.
GOD BLESS YOU Charles Dickens RIP Sir
Rip
This movie made me cry in public...I was a mess!

Ironically the same cottage and scene was used in Monty Python meaning of life with the French waiter telling his story.
