Oliver's mother came to the poor house in labor, she left Oliver in that cruel society and died. Oliver grew up in a ghetto and started to work hard when he was just nine years old. The children are engaged in heavy labor every day, but eat only a little gruel and a small piece of bread, and the stewards who abuse them are big fish and big meat. The children were unbearably hungry and decided to draw lots to determine who would make a request to the steward for a little extra food on their behalf. Oliver got the lottery, and he begged the steward in a panic: "Please give me a little more." As a result, this was considered absurd, and the poor house asked him to be an apprentice. In the coffin shop, he ate leftovers from the dogs and was abused.
Oliver fled to London alone. In that big city, he met the thief "clever" Dawkins, was taken to see Fagin, the thief, and fell into the den of thieves. Once, Dawkins and his accomplice Charlie stole something from an old man Brownlow, but the police mistakenly arrested Oliver. After finding out his innocence, the court released him. The kind Brownlow adopted Oliver. However, the good times did not last long, and Oliver was soon abducted by Fagin's accomplices Nancy and Sykes. In fact, Oliver is Brownlow's grandson, and Brownlow's heir, Monks, paid Fagin to watch Oliver in order to win the property. Nancy's conscience is still alive. Seeing the torture the child is suffering, she does everything possible to rescue Oliver. But her actions are discovered by Fagin, who tells Sykes that Nancy was killed by Sykes. The homicide sparks an official hunt for the gang, Fagin is arrested, and Sykes is shot dead. Oliver rescued and returned to grandfather Brownlow    .

    I still like the exaggerated faces in the old movies. Who is fierce and who is evil is very symbolic.

    [Review] Some scenes with high black and white contrast, expressionistic lighting, close-up faces, and the plot are like watching a wonderful noir movie. I love this ending--the three grandfather and grandson walked forward together towards the door. At first, I didn't find Alex Guinness, and Diana Dors (the future British Marilyn Monroe) who gave birth to Oliver's mother...

Oliver Twist quotes

  • Mr. Brownlow: The law assumes that your wife acts under your direction.

    Mr. Bumble: If the law supposes that, then the law is a ass, a idiot! If that's the eye of the law, then the law is a bachelor. And the worst I wish the law is that his eye may be opened by experience.

  • Fagin: What's become of the boy? Speak or I'll throttle you!

    Dodger: The traps have got him, and that's all about it!
