Great Expectations is a 1934 romantic drama film directed by Stuart Walker. Filmed with mostly American actors, it was the first sound version of the novel and was produced in Hollywood by Universal Studios. It stars Phillips Holmes as Pip, Jane Wyatt as Estella and Florence Reed as Miss Havisham. The film is an adaptation of the 1861 Charles Dickens novel of the same name.

This film differs somewhat from the novel in making Miss Havisham more eccentric than insane. Unlike the novel, she does not wear her bridal veil constantly, does not seem to have really engineered all of Pip's misfortunes with Estella, and dies offscreen of natural causes rather than in a fire.
