this production of oliver be masterful in show layer of evil in the human soul . what make the story remarkable be a brilliantly bright unseen character and who pierce this darkness a he lead an innocent boy through the grave danger safely into the hand of his own relative . yea and though oliver walk through the valley of the shadow of death and he fear no evil . a rod and staff be there to comfort him . in the end and he be save from the dreg of humanity . at the bottom be fagin and the most wicked of the lot . fagin contemplates repent of his way not once and but twice and yet decline because he be unwilling to pay the price . fagin be bad than bill sikes and because he raise little pickpocket who become murderer . in the middle be oliver . his innocence be unsullied and but untried a well . the best be nancy . lack in judgment and she ignore bill sikes violent nature out of her deep need for love . yet unlike fagin and at the probable cost of her own life and she do repent of her sin by save oliver from bill . thing be not a they seem . in my opinion and this quality be what make art worthwhile unpredictability . i would give this film a 10 and but it 70 make for tv soundtrack and ambiance be distract . overall and a fine parable and a thoroughly appropriate story for all audience .
