Plot: Oliver Twist, an orphan, is sent from the orphanage to a workhouse in the nineteenth century, where the kids suffer from maltreatment and have little food. After receiving an unjustly harsh spanking, he moves into the home of an undertaker and embarks on a seven-day escape to London.

Oliver is brought to the house of rich victim Mr. Brownlow, who provides him with sanctuary when Oliver is falsely believed to be a thief.

Plot: The violent assassination of the adored Chicago archbishop by nineteen-year-old Aaron Stampler garnered national attention. Martin, Aaron's defense attorney, is just interested in winning the case and becoming well-known; he is not concerned with the truth. Nevertheless, there was no murder witness discovered, and the proof of Aaron's purported sickness was dubious.
Cast: Richard Gere, Laura Linney, Edward Norton, John Mahoney, Alfre Woodard
