What happens

David Copperfield is a 1922 Danish drama film directed by A.W. Sandberg and starring Gorm Schmidt, Martin Herzberg and Margarete Schlegel. The film was made as part of an attempt to re-establish Danish cinema in the English-speaking world. While successful in Scandinavia, the film failed to do well in Britain and America. The film's sets were designed by the art director Carlo Jacobsen. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
