The film Oliver Twist is a remake of the novel of the same name by British writer Dickens, and a classic work directed by director Roman Polanski. The film takes London as the background city of the story, narrating the tragic life experience and ups and downs of the orphan Oliver. At the beginning of the film, a fragment of Oliver's life in an orphanage was selected as an introduction to allude to his oppression and unequal treatment. Later, he became an apprentice and endured unspeakable hardships and sufferings. And strayed into the den of thieves and fell into a more thrilling situation. Under the brilliance of human nature, Oliver was favored by justice and kindness, and finally obtained peace and happiness. There was tension and sadness as well as sadness and resentment in the process of watching the film, but in the end what I gained was comfort and surprise. Oliver's story exposes various problems in society at the time, and this film is enough to make us stop and ponder in peaceful times and happy lives. Is there something missing from our humanity in a society of indifference?
Only with a firm and kind nature can it be possible to receive justice. The fate of the orphan Oliver is undoubtedly tragic, but it is undeniable that he was always rescued unexpectedly and timely in the process of encountering misfortune. At first it was the judge, who saw his tender face with tears, and rescued him from the custodians; then, on the way to London, when his life was dying, and was kindly taken in and cared for by the old lady; finally, the gentleman of Brownlow. Maintaining and cultivating is his destiny to get rid of poverty and labor. Investigating the root cause, Oliver's favor was not accidental, but he always carried a kind and righteous heart, his face was full of firm expressions, and even his tears were so clear and sincere. There are many incarnations of kindness in the film. Because of the existence of these characters, the evil forces have nowhere to hide. There is no doubt that Oliver is the most perfect character who interprets kindness and honesty in the whole film. Except for Oliver, the old lady, Nancy and gentleman Brownlow are the embodiment of kindness and justice. Among them, Nancy is the most full-fledged and prominent character. Although she does not occupy a lot of scenes in the film, these short scenes are enough to show a kind and pure Nancy who is in the dark but helpless. in front of the audience. Born in misery, she began to steal from the villain Fagin at the age of two and a half. She has been growing up under the threat of Fagin. Although she has always been shrouded in darkness and sin, she still maintains a A pure and kind heart, in order to maintain justice and bravely fight against evil, even at the risk of sacrificing their lives. It seems impossible for someone who has done bad things to do good, but Nancy lets us see the brightest point of human nature, the hardships she suffered and the sins she witnessed did not make her completely degenerate. In this troubled world On the contrary, it shows her noble quality of being out of the mud and not stained. The film tells us a profound truth, evil can never win against righteousness. Although Nancy still sacrificed for justice in the end, it was her pure and noble soul that awakened the power of justice, and evil eventually went to perdition. Nancy's spirit is echoed, and her quality shines a light on humanity.
Although today's society seems to be calm, but in the peaceful and prosperous world, there are looming cold air. This cold air covers the warmth of human nature with a layer of fog, making communication between people difficult and even more difficult. Not to mention mutual love. A harmonious environment is precious. I hope this film can awaken the warm hearts of people and make our society more just and harmonious.
