If you loved Oliver Twist, try Der Heiratsschwindler von Paris
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Theyboth carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Comedy / Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Oliver Twist, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Der Heiratsschwindler von Paris is
Chaplin's dark comedy asks if mass murder is worse than individual killings. Verdoux is a family man who weds then poisons rich women to support his wife and child. It's a bit unsettling to realize how well the film's cynicism still lands.
