Oliver Twist 2005

This film is adapted from the 1838 masterpiece "Oliver Twist" by the British writer Dickens. Orphan Oliver (Barney Clark) was raised by the church. When he was 9 years old, he was sent to a children's factory to pick stuffing, and was later sold to a coffin shop as an apprentice. He was repeatedly bullied. Oliver escapes from the coffin shop and walks 70 miles to London, where he meets the thief "Clark" (played by Harry Eden) and is included in the theft gang of the Jewish old man Fagin (played by Ben Kinsley). On his first trip as an apprentice, Oliver was falsely accused of stealing Mr. Brownlow's (Edward Hardwicke) silk pa, and was beaten to the ground. He was taken home for adoption by the kind-hearted Mr. Brownlow, but was captured by Fagin's colleague Bill (Jamie Foreman) while running an errand for Mr. Brownlow. Bill forces Oliver to help him and his friend Toby (Mark Strong) burglarize Mr. Brownlow's house at night. Little Oliver refuses to obey and sees his life hanging in the balance...
