Please, sir, I want some more.
What?
Please, sir...
...I want some more.
More?

- "Hold him! - "Scold him!
- "Pounce him! Trounce him! - "Pick him up and bounce him!"
"Wait!
"Before we take the lad to task
"May I be so curious as to ask His name?
"Oliver"
Oliver Twist, Mr. Bumble.
- You named him so yourself. - So that's who he is!
"Oliver! Oliver! Never before has a boy wanted more!
"Oliver! Oliver!
"Won't ask for more when he knows what's in store
"There's a dark, thin, winding Stairway without any banister
"Which we'll throw him down, and
"Feed him on cockroaches Served in a canister
"Oliver! Oliver! What will he do when he's black and blue?
"He will rue the day Somebody named him Oliver!
"Oliver, Oliver Never before has a boy wanted more!
"Oliver! Oliver!
"Won't ask for more when he knows what's in store

"Which we'll throw him down, and
"Feed him on cockroaches Served in a canister
"Oliver! Oliver!
"What, heavens pray, will the governors say?
"They will lay the blame On the one who named him
"Oliver!"
Out!
"One boy
"Boy for sale
"He's going cheap
"How much, then?
- "Only seven guineas - "How much?
"That or thereabouts
"Fine boy
"Boy for sale
"He's yours to keep
"For 1,000 pennies
"You can work it out
"That's slightly under four guineas Knocked down from seven guineas
- "Three pounds, ten shillings - "Three pounds what, sir?
"Certainly not, sir
"Any advance on three pounds ten, then?
"Going, going
"Gone
"I could not say He isn't very greedy"
"I dare not
"I'd be telling you a tale
"One boy
"Boy for sale
"Come take a peek
"Have you ever seen As nice a boy for sale?"
- How much did you say? - Only three guineas, Mr. Sowerberry.
- A bargain, if ever there was one. - I was looking for a boy.
All right, bring him in, Mr. Bumble.
My love, I said we might consider taking this boy...
...to help in the shop.
Dear me. He's very small.
He is rather small, there's no denying, but he'll grow, Mrs. Sowerberry.
I dare say he will. On our bittles and our drink!
These workhouse boys always cost more than they're worth.
- Where did he come from? - Mother came to us destitute.
She gave birth to him and promptly died, leaving no forwarding name or address.
Here he is, yours for three guineas. Cash on delivery.
No, cash upon liking. A week on approval.
If he works hard on a little food, then we'll keep him.
He can help put the shutters up. Do you hear, now?
- Then he can clean around the house. - I'll look after him, missus.
My dear, it occurred to me, he'll make a delightful coffin-follower.
That expression of melancholy. Interesting, don't you think so, my love?
I don't mean a regular coffin-follower to attend grown-up people, no...
...just at children's funerals.
A mute in proportion, so to speak?
Precisely. A superb effect, don't you think?
Do you think you could look like that gentlemen up there?
Perhaps, if I had a tall hat.
Look, it's Oliver!
- Noah, come on. - No.
How's your mother, workhouse?
You leave my mother out of it. She's dead.
What did she die of? Shortage of breath?
You'd better not say anything about her to me.
Don't be cheeky, workhouse.
Your mother, she was a nice one, a regular right-down bad one.
What did you say?
It's a good thing she died when she did 'cause she'd be in prison doing hard labor.
Help!
Get away! Get away from him!
What's going on down here? What are you trying to do, wake the dead?
It's you! Get out of here!
He started it!
Come here, you!
- Quick! - Hurry up.
Oh, dear!
I'm going off. Water!
Noah, run over to the workhouse. Get Mr. Bumble. Tell him to come quick.
Where is he? Where is the young rascal?
- Oliver? - Yes, I'm here.
- Do you know this voice? - Yes, I do.
Ain't you afraid of it? Ain't you trembling when I speak?
No, I'm not!
- He's gone mad to speak to you like that. - It's not madness, it's meat.
- Meat? - Meat, ma'am! You overfed the boy.
You raised an artificial spirit in the lad unbecoming to his station in life.
This wouldn't have happened if you'd fed him gruel.
I'd be glad to give you the recipe.
- Having a rest, Mr. Bumble? - He's sitting on Oliver.
- Quite right. We must all sit on Oliver. - You've been drinking again?
- I met a friend in the cemetery. - Help!
Who's in there?
That coffin should not have been occupied until tomorrow.
It's reserved for a very important client.
Stand back!
- What's your explanation, you scallywag? - He called my mom a name.
And what if he did, you ungrateful wretch? She deserved what he said and worse.
- She didn't! - She did!
It's a lie.
- Hold your tongue, boy. - Put him down in the cellar.
It's really quite comfortable.
Stay there till we decide what to do with you.
Here's your baggage, workhouse.
Three pounds, indeed! You can take him back.

What you staring at?
Haven't you never seen a toff?
No, never. I'm sorry. I didn't...
That's all right.
- Hungry? - Yes, I am. I've come a long way.
I've been walking for seven days.
- Been running away from the beak? - The what?
Don't say you don't know what a "beak" is?
It's a bird's mouth, isn't it?
My eyes, how green can you get!
For your information, a beak is a magistrate.
- Who you running from, your old man? - No, I'm an orphan.
I've come to London to make my fortune.
You have, have you?
Got any lodgings?
- Money? - Not a farthing.
Do you live in London?
What the...
I suppose you want someplace to sleep tonight.
Do you know of anywhere?
I know a respectable old gentleman who'll give you lodgings for nothing.
And never ask for the change, if a gentleman he knows introduces you.
Don't you know me?
He must be a very kind old gentlemen.
Yes, he's very kind.
And I'm a particular favorite of his.
Now, if you're coming along, I'd better know who you are.
My name's Oliver Twist.
And mine's Jack Dawkins. Better known as the Artful Dodger.
Pleased to meet you, Mr. Dodger. Sure the old gentleman won't mind?
Mind?

It's Dodger! Coming up.
Dodger.
Oliver!
Up you go.
- Not again. - Get out.
Fagin, I brought my new friend to see you.
Oliver Twist.
Sir.
I hope I shall have the honor of your intimate acquaintance.
We're glad to see you, Oliver.
Aren't we, my dears?
Yes, Fagin!
Give me back my things. Leave it!
Leave him alone!
Take off the sausages. Lay a place at the table for Mr. Twist.
Dodger tells me you've come to London to seek your fortune.
Yes, sir.
We must see what we can do to help you, mustn't we?
- Thank you. - These sausages are moldy!
Shut up and drink your gin!
You're staring at the pocket handkerchiefs, my dear?
We just hung them up ready for the wash, that's all.
- Is this a laundry then, sir? - Yeah, a laundry!
Not exactly. A laundry would be a very nice thing indeed.
But our line of business pays a little better. Don't it, boys?
You see, Oliver...
"In this life, one thing counts: In the bank, large amounts!
"I'm afraid these don't grow on trees You've got to pick a pocket or two
"You've got to pick a pocket or two, boys
"You've got to pick a pocket or two
"Large amounts don't grow on trees You've got to pick a pocket or two"
Let's show Oliver how to do it, my dears.
Just a game, Oliver, just a game.
"Why should we break our backs Stupidly paying tax?
"Better get some untaxed income: Better pick a pocket or two
"You've got to pick a pocket or two, boys
"You've got to pick a pocket or two
"Why should we all break our backs?
"Better pick a pocket or two
"Robin Hood, what a crook: Gave away what he took
"Charity's fine, subscribe to mine Get out and pick a pocket or two
"You've got to pick a pocket or two, boys
"Robin Hood was far too good
"Get out and pick a pocket or two
"Take a tip from Bill Sikes: He can whip what he likes
"I recall, he started small He had to pick a pocket or two
"You've got to pick a pocket or two, boys
"You've got to pick a pocket or two
"We could be like old Bill Sikes If we pick a pocket or two
"Dear old gent passing by Something nice takes his eye
"Everything's clear, attack the rear! Get in and pick a pocket or two
"You've got to pick a pocket or two, boys
"You've got to pick a pocket or two

"You've got to pick a pocket or two, boys
"You've got to pick a pocket or two
"Just to find some peace of mind
"We have to pick a pocket or two!"
Put them all back in the box.
All of them.
Come here!
Good boy. What a crook!
We've all been hard at work today, haven't we, my dears?
What have you got, Dodger?
- A couple wallets. - Lined?
Only the best.
Not as heavy as they might be.
But, very nicely made.
- Ingenious workman, ain't he? - Does he make these himself?
- With his own lily-white hands. - What have you got, Charlie?
- A couple of wipes. - Very good ones.
But you haven't embroidered them too well though, Charlie.
We'll have to pick the initials out with a needle.
- You'll need to learn how to do this, too. - Yeah, the trademark.
In the meantime, you must learn how to make wallets.
- Like the Dodger. Would you like that? - Yes, if you'll teach me.
Certainly, my boy, no fee.
Just do as Dodger and the others do.
Make them your models, especially Dodger.
He's going to be a right little Bill Sikes.
Who's Bill Sikes, Mr. Fagin?
He's a very clever gentleman.
You'll meet him tomorrow.
Maybe now. Is it possible, by chance...
...that my kerchief is protruding from my pocket?
- Yes. I can just see the edge. - Can you?
See if you can take it out without my feeling it...
...like you saw the others do.
"You've got to pick a pocket or two, boys
"You've got to pick a pocket or two"
Is it gone?
Yes, Mr. Fagin. Look!
Well, that's a surprise, I must say.
You're a clever boy, Oliver. I never saw a sharper lad.
Here's a shilling for you.
I have to go to the bank.
Bedtime, all of you! There's a hard day's work ahead!
Put up the shutters.
Where do I sleep, sir?
Over here, my dear.
Settle down!
Dodger, take your legs off his bed. Where's your manners?
Here, my dear, have a good sleep.
If you go on...
...the way you've started...
...you will be the greatest man of all time.
Sweet dreams, Oliver.
Sweet dreams.
Goodnight, sir.
"You've got to pick a pocket or two, boys
"You've got to pick a pocket or two"
Is he here?
Mr. Sikes. Has he come yet?
Nancy's inside waiting for him.
- How's business? Nice and brisk? - Don't burn your fingers, will you?
I never do, my dear. Not if I can help it.
Nancy! He's back! He's here!
Beautiful.
You've done well, Bill.
All one job?
Such a professional.
Now, Bill...
Carry cash? At this time of night?
All those thieves and robbers lurking in dark alleys?
I wouldn't dare.
Besides, I've got to price it first.
Nancy's waiting. Give you a good supper.
Tomorrow, Bill.
My word on it.

Be sure it ain't your own.
Fagin, I'm waiting.
Waiting, my dear? What for?
Bill will give you what for, if you don't fork out. Hand over, start counting.

How can I help it?
A fine thing, Oliver in jail, and tomorrow he'll be before a beak!
For pinching a wallet. He goes to jail, what's it matter?
I'm afraid he may say something which will get us into trouble.
That's very likely, Fagin. You see, you're blowed upon.
And I'm afraid, you see, that...

...it might be up with a good many more.
It would come out rather worse for you...

What crime is this one charged with? He looks a thorough reprobate, to me.
Speak up, man! What's he charged with?
He's not charged, Your Worship. This gentlemen appears against the boy.
- What boy? I see no boy. - The boy in the dock, Your Worship.
- Yes. Stand up, boy! - He is standing up.
Don't be impertinent. Put him on a box or something.
- What's he charged with? - Picking pockets, sir.
What's your name, boy?
Does your father know you're here?
He says he's an orphan.
Where do you come from?
Where do you live?
Who looks after you?
He doesn't seem able to say where he lives or anything else.
A liar as well as a thief.
And insolent, too. That settles it.
The boy is committed to three months with hard labor.
This is disgraceful! I demand to be heard.
You have not yet...
- I was there. - Remove this lunatic! Clear the court.
I will speak, I saw what happened. He was outside my shop.
Two other boys stole the wallet. This child had nothing to do with it.
But sentence has been passed!
Hasn't it?
He didn't talk. Case was dismissed.
What a great judge! Fetch the boy.
- I've done my share. - Look!
Now, come on.
Where are we going?
At least I can make some amends. You're coming home with me. Jump in.
- After them. - Let the kid go.
- He can still blab on us, can't he? - Leave him be.
Don't lose him.

We've got to get him back, do you hear?
Nab him the first time he sets foot out of the door.
He never goes out alone, you know that.
Don't you back answer me, my girl.
Three days since I spotted him...
...and what have you done about it?
Nothing! We've got to get hold of him somehow.
Now, who's coming?
- Suppose it'll have to be me. - Shut your trap, Dodger.
You've caused enough trouble already. It's going to be done quiet, no fuss.
Someone who has the boy's confidence...
Nancy, my dear, what do you say?
It's no good trying it on with me.
And just exactly what do you mean by that remark?
What I say. I'm not going!
Why can't you leave the boy alone? He won't do you no harm!
Why can't you leave him where he is? Where he'll have the chance at a good life?
You'll bring him back here, my girl...
...unless you want to feel my hand on your throat.
Nancy, my dear, we must have that boy brought back.
If he talked, think what would happen to us. Think what would happen to Bill.
It would be the gallows for him, the drop.
You wouldn't want that to happen, would you, my dear? Not to Bill.
- She'll go, Fagin. - No, she won't!
Yes, she will, Fagin!
She'll go.
Even if I have to drag her there myself.

- Can I answer it, Rose? - Thank you, dear.
- Books from Mr. Jessop. - Thank you.
- Please sir, these books came for you. - Good.
- Wait, there's some to go back. - Boy's gone, sir.
Can I take them for you?
I know where the shop is. Please let me take them. I'll be quick.
All right. Mrs. Bedwin, the books are on the table beside my bed.
You'll take those books to Mr. Jessop.
Tell him you have come to pay the �4.10 that I owe him.
This is �5 note, so there'll be 10 shillings change.
You understand?
She's a very pretty lady, isn't she, sir?
Yes.
I'll take the books for you.
In a new suit, with a set of valuable books, and �5 note in his pocket...
...you expect him back? - Don't you?
- Lf he does, I'll eat my head with my hat. - Look at that portrait.
Do you see a likeness to the lad?
- That's your niece, isn't it? - That's what I mean.
Wasn't she the girl who...
Who ran away?
A young, innocent face, nothing more. Mere coincidence.
I'm not so sure.
Born in a workhouse at Dunstable, he thinks.
That's all he can tell us. Very well.
"Who will buy this wonderful morning?"
- 'Morning. - 'Morning.
"Such a sky you never did see
"Who will tie it up with a ribbon And put it in a box for me?"
- Help! - Get in the cart.
Bull's-eye, come here.
- Oliver's back. - Look at his togs.
- He's got books, too. Quite the little gent. - Lovely bit of stuff.
Delighted to see you're so well, my dear.
Dodger will give you another suit in case you spoil that Sunday one.
Look at this!
I'll bank it for you.
What's that?
- That's mine, Fagin. - No. Mine, ours.
- You shall have the books. - You hand it over, you old skeleton.
That's for our share of the trouble.
You keep the books. Start a library.
Mr. Brownlow will be here after you if he finds out you've got his books and money.
So he'll be here, will he? Out here, after us?
- What did you tell him about us? - Nothing.
I'll wager this young rat's told him everything.
What did you tell him?
- No, leave him alone. - You stand off me.
No violence.
You'll have to kill me before you lay a hand on that boy.
Don't you tell me. You keep out of this.
If he says he didn't tell them, he didn't tell them.
Hit me, would you?
I won't stand by and see it done. Let him be, or I'll put my mark on you...
Nancy, you're wonderful tonight! Such talent! Such a joker!
You take care, I don't know, but do it, Fagin...
...or I'll put the finger on all of you, and I don't care if I hang for it.
- Do you know who you are? What you are? - You don't have to tell me.
- A fine one for the boy to make a friend of. - Yes, I am, God help me.
And I wish I'd been struck down dead before I'd laid a hand to bring him back.
From tonight he's a liar...
...and a thief, and all that's bad.
Ain't that enough for you without beating him to death?
Come, come, Sikes. We must have civil words.
Yes, you deserve them from me, don't you?
I thieved for you when I was half his age.
- It's your dirty work I been doing since. - It's a living isn't it?
- He's right, Nancy, a living is a living. - Some living, Lord help me. Some living!
Get to bed, all of you.
Get to bed, I said!
All this violence, all these scenes, screams, dramas!
I'm asking you, is it necessary?
Not yet, Fagin.
But if this godforsaken little good-for-nothing's uttered one word...
If he has, the little devil...
...we sit down, talk it over, we think it out, we decide a safe action, we stay calm.
Do we? And while we're sitting here...
...thinking, and talking, and staying calm...
...our collars get felt. And it's, "Come with me, if you please. "
No, thank you.
You thought us into this lot. You can think your way out of it.
From now on, Bill Sikes takes the law into his own hands.
These hands.
Have you ever heard the sound of a chicken getting its neck wrung?
Can't say I have...
They squawk, Fagin, they squawk.
Not a very pretty sound.
No, Bill.
And then they die, don't they?
Yes. I mean, no.
They say some even start squawking before that even.
They get what you might call a premonition.
You're wouldn't be having no premonition of that sort, would you?
Not me, Bill. The lips are sealed.
I'm glad. Because if anyone here should lead the law to me...
...and I gets to hear of it, then it will be your neck.
Your scraggy old neck.
You think about it, Fagin.
A violent man, Dodger. A very violent man.
When that man's back is up, no one is safe.
Look after him, Dodger.
And I'll look after myself.
A man's got a heart, hasn't he?
Joking apart, hasn't he?
"Though I'd be the first one to say that I wasn't a saint
"I'm finding it hard to be really as black as they paint
"I'm reviewing the situation:
"Can a fellow be a villain all his life?
"All the trials and tribulation! Better settle down and get meself a wife
"And the wife would cook and sew for me And come for me, and go for me
"And go for me and nag at me The finger she would wag at me
"The money she would take from me A misery, she'd make from me
"I think I'd better think it out again!
"A wife you can keep, anyway I'd rather sleep, anyway
"Left without anyone in the world And I'm starting from now
"So, how to win friends and to influence people?
"So, how?
"I'm reviewing the situation
"I must quickly look up everyone I know:
"Titled people with a station Who'll help me make an impressive show!
"I will own a suite at Claridge's and run a fleet of carriages
"And wave at all the duchesses With friendliness, as much as is
"Befitting of my new estate Good morrow to you, Magistrate!
"I think I'd better think it out again
"So, where shall I go? Somebody?
"Who do I know? Nobody!
"All my dearest companions Have always been villains and thieves
"So, at my time of life I should start Turning over new leaves?
"I'm reviewing the situation:
"If you want to eat you've got to earn a bob!
"Is it such a humiliation For a robber to perform an honest job?
"So a job I'm getting, possibly I wonder who my boss'll be?
"I wonder if he'll take to me? What bonuses he'll make to me?
"I'll start at 8:00, finish late At normal rate, and all, but wait!
"I think I'd better think it out
"I think I'd better think it out again
"What happens when I'm 70?
"Must come a time, 70
"When you're old, and it's cold And who cares if you live or you die?
"Your one consolation's the money You may have put by
"I'm reviewing the situation:
"I'm a bad 'un and a bad 'un I shall stay!
"You'll be seeing no transformation But it's wrong to be a rogue in every way
"I don't want nobody hurt for me Or made to do the dirt for me
"This rotten life is not for me It's getting far too hot for me
"There is no in-between for me But who will change the scene for me?
"Don't want no one to rob for me But who will find a job for me?
"I think I'd better think it out again!"
Must I go?
One word out of you...
...while you're out with me and you know what will happen.
Bill, you can't do this to him. Please! You can't!
- I won't let you... - No more of that.
You just be at the tavern at 11:00.
- I've come about Oliver. Tell Brownlow... - You better come inside. Mr. Brownlow!
- No. I just want to leave a message. - But he'll want to see you.
- Please! I can't stay! - Sir, this person wants to...
- Who is it? - It's about the boy, sir.
- Is there news of him? - He's in danger.
He was dragged off the day you sent him out.
- Who took him? - Me and someone else.
- You took him by force? - Yes!
- Now I wish I had never been part of it. - Where is he now?
Who is this other person? Can you take me to him?
You want to help the boy. Why else are you here?
- Then tell me where he is! - I can't!
I'll bring him to you. Not here. It's too far.
Where, then?
London Bridge, tonight at midnight.
But you've got to come alone. Promise you'll come on your own!
You don't trust me, do you? But you've got to.
- I'll be there. - Thank God. Let me go.
Wait! Is the boy hurt, ill-treated?
I can't say no more. Please! He'll kill me as it is if he finds out.
- Who is this man? - No, I won't tell you.
Whatever I do, I won't turn on him.
You wouldn't understand.
I've got to go back.
I want to go back.
- Promise you'll come? - At 12:00.
Remember, you little worm, the front door.
There.
Hurry!
Look above you.
Who is it? Who's there?
Rufus! Dragon! Come down, seize him!
Seize him! Good dog!
Why worry, my dear? He always turns up!
Maybe he's taken Oliver back to my place.
- He said he was coming straight here. - And that's what he'll do.
- Everything all right, Bill? - No it's not, Fagin.
- The brat woke them up. We had to run. - Anybody see you?
No.
I'll just take the boy and put him to bed. I'll be back.
Put him back.
Bull's-eye...
Bull's-eye, watch him, will you? Go on!

Come here!

Bill Sikes, what did you do?
She won't peach on nobody no more.
You shouldn't have done that.
- She peached? Are you sure? - She must have, mustn't she?
She was handing the boy over to Brownlow on the bridge.
He was there, waiting for her.
What did you come here for? Get out! Do you hear? Get out!
I want money.
How much? 10? 20?
- Lf anyone should come here... - They won't find me.
I'm not going to stand here and wait for them...

Quick, boys! All of you! We're changing lodgings!
Nancy, I loved you, didn't I? Look what you've done to me.
Bill, why make things worse? Leave him.

Keep out of it!
Out the back way. Come on!
- Look up there! - It's him! Bill Sikes!
It's him for sure!
And the boy.
Scoundrel!
Get back!
The other street, quickly!
- After you, Fagin. - After you, Dodger.
Don't bother with that. Get out of it.
- What do I do? - Live up to your name, dodge about!
Get up there!
