Dickens's Points of View

Professor Jon Mee, University of Warwick, discusses how Dickens's fiction can be considered 'cinematic' by drawing attention to the shifting points of view in Oliver Twist, Our Mutual Friend, and other novels.

He relates this to work done in recent and historical adaptations of Dickens's work.
