Is this a good criterion? And how is the film, is it great as I imagine it is? I just wonder, since I just order this one. Thanks you in advance.

Oliver Twist

I rented this dvd a short while ago and I would have to say that it is well worth the purchase. The film is very engrossing and you care very much what happens to the young boy, Oliver. He'll break your heart. This a very realistic portrayal of Victorian England, its poverty and bleakness, not a very happy place for homeless children. The transfer of this film is quite good, considering that it is over 50 years old. There is a trailer included which I thought was good. All in all, I would say that this is one of the classics of the last century that will survive till the end of the next.
