I remember seeing Oliver as a movie instead of reading it, and I was completely entranced. I also loved Great Expectations. Thank you for honoring a writer that I simply ADORE!

Oliver was and is a great movie... Showed to a high school class as late as 2014. It still rocked.... It's also the only movie that I like just as much as the book, which is an experience in and of itself. Thanks for the feedback, Caren. :) gw
