OLIVER TWIST Released to Theaters USA 2005)

 

Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.9|5.0 Starsììì  Oliver Twist— remake of the 1968 Oliver!—is a part of many  remakes of the Charles Dickens' 1838 novel, Oliver Twist. The years of remakes include 1909 through 1948, 1968, 1982, 1997, and 2003.  There is also a modernized film after Oliver Twist (2005) named Twist (2021). This 2005 movie, Oliver Twist, is about the same quality as the 1968 Oliver!, but it is not as likeable or believable as the 1968 Oliver!  However, this movie, Oliver Twist (2005) is not a musical like Oliver! (1968). So, if an audience does not care for  musicals this remake may be a preferable watch.   Film Poster Courtesy of Google Images Storyline  Oliver Twist gets sent to another home away from the orphanage because he wants more food.  Additional Thanks  Thank you to Director Roman Polanski for directing effort.
