Oliver Twist

Good!.
There are a lot of movies based on Charles Dickens classic novel Oliver Twist and I remember watching this version on TV I liked it and thought that George C. Scott and Tim Curry were really good and I would like to see this movie put on DVD! Tim Curry was good as Bill Sykes and the scene in which he attacked Nancy was scary!

Fine version of the classic novel.
This is a fine version of Dicken's novel. George C. Scott is always interesting, and he does not disappoint. Cherie Lunghi is a fine Nancy. Lovers of the David Lean movie or the Novel itself, as is often the case may find this version lacking, but for a made for TV movie this is very entertaining.

OLIVER TWIST w/ George C. Scott
When I first saw OLIVER TWIST starring George C. Scott on television back in the 1980s, I thought it was an excellent production. After more than twenty years, it's still excellent. Charles Dickens' story is brought to life by Mr. Scott and the wonderful cast. This TV movie should be available for all to see, instead of being out-of-print. I highly recommend this movie.
