Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was shot during the actual Oliver Twist production, meaning these kids were simultaneously filming a grim Dickens adaptation and this chaotic documentary. The whiplash.
Released at a time when Polanski's personal history made any project complicated, this short weirdly humanizes his working relationship with children without addressing the elephant in the room.
