Very different from the original

I feel a little unfamiliar with the content of this movie, and I want to question its logic.
So I re-read the original book and found that the movie is really different.

The movie omits a lot of important background explanations, and also makes a lot of changes in the relationship between characters and plot. A very big rewrite. Personally, I feel that some of the shining things in the original book have been wiped out. And it may be misleading to those who want to understand the original book through the film.
PS. The boundaries of evil may be more in line with real human nature. It incorporates more sympathy and compassion.

Oliver Twist quotes

  • Fagin: Do you know what I consider the greatest sin in the world, my dear? Ingratitude. That's what you're guilty of. Ingratitude.

  • Fagin: You're like yourself tonight, Bill.

    [puts his hand on Bill's shoulder]

    Fagin: Quite like yourself.

    Bill Sykes: Well I don't feel like myself when you lay that wicked old claw on my shoulder, so take it away!
