About this product

Product Information

A mini-series from the BBC, FINGERSMITH is an adaptation of a novel from author Sarah Waters, who had her TIPPING THE VELVET brought so memorably to the screen by director Geoffrey Sax. The glittering cast includes Imelda Staunton (VERA DRAKE) and Charles Dance (GOSFORD PARK), while the title is a slang term used to describe thieves in the 1800s. The story follows a young girl as she grows up surrounded by a group of fingersmiths, whose devious ways mask their kindness in raising her. But when she is embroiled in a scheme to help a con man, she learns what deviancy really is, while also finding herself sexually attracted to another woman.

    Well worth watching!

    Excellent scenes depicting old London. All of the actors did a wonderful job. The storyline pretty much follows the book. The book is also a very good read.

  • Could have been better named because I was totally throw off with the title.

    Sometimes when the movie reviews are written on the back of the box, and/or online reviews are not accurate. This was pretty accurate and more engaging than I expected. The story was good and I was surprised with the twist and turns of the story line.

  • Glad I bought it :)

    First I read the book - LOVE IT! I rented the movie on Netflix. It kept to the storyline, which doesn’t always happen. After a month I wanted to re watch it so I bought it ! Yah !

  • If Oliver Twist Were A Lesbian...

    If Oliver Twist were a lesbian, you'd get something like FINGERSMITH. This tale could have been written by Charles Dickens. Gangs of criminals in Victorian London, a horrific mental asylum, rags-to-riches orphans, charming but evil men with ulterior motives...it's all very Dickensian, plus a semi-explicit lesbian love scene. Not everyone makes it out alive, and one of the deaths is especially sad. Great plot with enough twists to keep you guessing.
