The Old Curiosity Shop is a 1934 British drama film directed by Thomas Bentley and starring Elaine Benson, Ben Webster and Hay Petrie.
The film was produced by British International Pictures, one of the two most prominent British film studios of the time, at its base at Elstree Studios.
Bentley was a well-established director who worked on several of the company's presigous historical films during the decade.
The film sought to achieve a "painterly" effect in its interpretation of the original work.
The recreation of the grotesque elements of Dickens' novel has led to it being described as an "expressionist nightmare".
