OLIVER TWIST
This is by far the best version of this story. This tells you the chain of events which lead to Oliver being born in the workhouse which other versions leave out. The cast is excellent. Robert Lindsay is fantastic as Fagin. It has comedy, drama & suspense. A must for any DVD collection.
