Nothing like a little color blind casting (Dev Patel in the title role, etc) and the director of the dark comedies “In the Loop” and “Death of Stalin” for breathing life into a musty old Charlie Dickens morality tale.

Hugh Laurie, Tilda Swinton, Peter Capaldi and Ben Whishaw are the stars.

This trailer is laugh-out-loud funny, so brace yourself for a spit take. No drinking while watching.
