Not a feel-good story. England at it's dirtiest with coal dust in the air. Miserable if you're poor. And the law is unforgivingand malicious toward of minor acts of crime and even with such horrible laws, crime flourishes.
@anonUK: I didn't say anything bad about this version, so I don't know where you got that from. I was stating that she shouldn't watch a television/film adaptation of a book to take a test, write a book report, etc. alone and expect to pass with flying colors. She could miss a lot of the questions and do badly. This is my favorite version and it's indeed more faithful than many other ones, but it still deviates from the original plot on several points all the same.
Dont bother reading the BOOK you will have it on the streets shortly In America all over the world there are lNew Little Olivers ,,, why should we be different? Thanks GOP
@elizaxoxo100: In addition to what lavloggymania said, this version also deviates from the original storyline in several parts, so it'd be best to just read the book. I tried to do the same thing you're trying to do on an Accelerated Reading test when I was in third grade and I ended up failing it (I used the Disney version of Oliver Twist from 1997). >.<
While I don't deny that this is a poor substitute for the actual novel, this is probably much closer to the original idea of the novel than anything Disney could come up with.
Were there any animated woodland creatures in the Disney version? That's where you made your mistake...
only reason im watchin dis is cuz...my english teacher is makin my whole class read this book and i couldnt be bothored reading...its much easier to watch :DDD
I saw this movie when it first came on PBS! Thank you for putting this on here. I enjoyed watching it. I wish PBS would encore their Masterpiece specials like this more than they do.
I read the books many times when I was young and felt so heartbroken for Oliver especially when he got shot and was left for dead. Now its a cruel world out there but the ROOT cause of Oliver's MISERIES are his MOTHER and FATHER. If they had WAITED, gotten MARRIED and had their child LEGITIMATELY like the rest of CIVILIZED people NONE of this would have happened.
@LaplaceFourier The root of it was the society the lived in, and that is exactly what Dickens intended, you can't argue with that, because he in fact said that those were his intentions. If your born poor like Oliver's mother probably was, you were basically screwed. His mother was young, innocent, naïve. Aren't we all when we're young? I'm not justifying her choice, I'm just saying that you can't judge somebody from one mistake.
@authorgirl2010 yeah but in those times if a woman lost her virtue her family might decide to cast her off without any money. i'm thinking thats what probably happened when her family found out. because she was rich in the beginning and when she had oliver she looked like she was homeless and trying to find a place to stay.
@dramaqueen465 Well as you see in the film version they show she wasn't cast out but like others have pointed out theres a rather large plot hole concerning his parents.
@spinynorman230 olivers mother was middle class,not in anyway poor,she was the niece of mr brownlow,she fell in love with the wrong man who let her down,so she felt to ashamed to return to her family.
@spinynorman230 The sad part is, Oliver's mom WAS NOT POOR. It really is her own fault. She was slept with a person with out being married, who left her. Because she had sex before marriage she either was sent away or ran away (can't remember). If she had waited until he put that rock on her finger, non of this would have happened.
It's nice that the town people cared so much that they took her to safety~ If a woman nowadays did what she did, people probably wouldn't even look at her at all.
@ilovetheworld123bka Possibly about to throw herself off the cliff. In her right hand she has a locket with a picture of herself and the baby (Oliver's) father. It is the only thing he will have to remind him in future life of who he is.
I saw this version. It adds tons of backstory that wasn't in the book, and even adds a second murder that Dickens didn't write. Of course, what's left o the original is good, but sme scenes are changed so much they're practically unrecognizable.
There are so many adaptions of this... I was looking for another version, but I'll watch this one too. :P So far this would be the second movie depiction I've watched. The 2005 one was very true to the books, except some details and it never really mentioned Oliver's origins. I do vaguely remember them but not the details.
there are about ten or more versions. i haven't seen all of them yet, only the 2005 version instead. but the story is beautiful so i think all of the versions might be beautiful too...
well, the musical with Mark Lester and Jack Wild...then the 2003 (?) one with Harry Eden and Barney Clark. i've seen some productions like in shows and stuff, so i'm sorry i was exagerrating a bit when i said "almost every version"...:S
