I did not know there is a Polanski Oliver Twist, thanks for mentioning it. Maybe I will watch it on Oct 25. In searching for it, I found that I had forgotten there was a Disney Oliver Twist with Richard Dreyfuss and Elijah Wood. I have no memory of it, but according to Netflix I rented it in...
I am watching the Twilight Time blu of "Oliver!". Not exactly Christmas, but it's Dickens and there is a scene with snow and Nancy dies but is redeemed by her kindness to Oliver.
