this be my favourite film a a child and and i have be in the stage production a few time so it will always remain my favourite muscical and i doubt anybody could ever re make the story of oliver twist on screen and any good than this one do . my all time favourite bad guy have to be oliver reed a bill sikes . not only do he scare the life out of my when i watch it a a 6 year old and but now a a woman i can empathize more with nancys character and the bar maid or prostitute who help oliver get the life he deserve . jack wilde a the artful dodger and be fantastic and and i do not think anybody could ever out do him and a the street pocket picker and and best friend of fagin . the music be fantastic and especially fagin number and i be also quite thankful they do not give bill sikes a musical number and it wouldn not of work with him be such a sinister character . i think carol reed do an excellent job of nancy sticky end and keep it a g rat movie by disguise her beating and but give enough away to show the violence of bill towards her . this movie be both charm and and charismatic a a musical sing along and as well a be a move drama that follow a young boy a he try to find where he belong in life .
