I must confess, I've never read Bleak House.

Something about the title, I guess...

Cheers!

Don't let the title form a premature notion of the novel. Bleak House may be Dickens' best effort.
There is a movie adapted from the story but like other films of CD's books it fails. Exception possibly being A Christmas Carol.
In order to properly render a story like Bleak House to the screen it would be requisite that it be approx ten hours long.
