In Gillian Anderson's version of `Great expectations` we can see again that the unforgettable character Miss Havisham has been portrayed very differently from the other two that I have analysed. Both in image, and in character. In terms of character she seems to have a very warming effect. Her voice is soft and gentle. When Pip first sees her she is glowing as if she is a spirit; which initially makes me warm to her. I think the makeup is beautiful in this adaption of Miss Havisham. She does not look as though she is decaying she almost looks like a spirit possibly a implication that she is dead in spirit? The base is flawless, pale, yet the texture is dewy on the cheeks. It looks as though there is no makeup on the eyes, except from brown shades around the eyes, possibly to indicate that she is sleep deprived. Her lips are extremely dry I think this is a nice touch to the makeup, as a kiss represent love, since her lips are cracked it cold be representing that her heart is cracked. For me the hair looks far too perfect, as I do not believe that the ringlets would hold for years.
