Based upon one of Charles Dickens’ most enduring 19th century characters, Oliver! combines the cartoon-like innocence of childhood with the dark and ominous undertones of poverty, hardship, and violence.
Young Oliver is
trapped in a world where his only alternatives seem bleak: the workhouse, a criminal life in the London underworld,
prison or an early grave.
From this dismal, industrial setting, a fairy tale emerges: in the midst of corruption and
degradation, Oliver remains pure-hearted. He resists the distorted ideals of the uncaring middle class; steers away from evil when the criminals around him give in to it; and, in proper fairy-tale fashion, he eventually receives his reward
