I've seen many versions of Dickens' classic tale and I thoroughly enjoyed this one. The art direction is superb, casting spot on--Ben Kingsley as Fagin? Brilliant!--and Rachel Portman's score is beautiful and fitting. No film version of any Dickens tale has ever truly the intricacies of his characters and plots, in my opinion, but this one comes close.
