Based on the 1861 novel. A happy-go-lucky orphan discovers that an unknown benefactor is offering to finance his education and introduction into high society. Lean's first Dickens adaptation, followed by "Oliver Twist" (1948), and the film which many consider to be the finest in his oeuvre. Nominated for five Academy Awards and winning two.
