Oliver Twist

Streaming video - 2007

This gripping and emotionally powerful adaptation from one of British television's most exciting new writers breathes new life into the popular Dickens story. On a dark and stormy winter's night in a miserable, dank room, lit only by a few candles, Oliver is born into a life of poverty and misfortune. Growing up in a workhouse, watching the suffering and cruelty endured by the boys at the hands of his masters, Oliver decides he wants more and sets out for London. There he meets the Artful Dodger, Nancy, Fagin and the boys and gets the first warm welcome of his life.
