Oliver!
30th Anniversary Tribute Edition
Experience the high-spirited adventures of Oliver Twist in this Oscar-winning musical adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic tale!
Young Oliver is an orphan who escapes the cheerless life of the workhouse and takes to the streets of 19th-century London. He's immediately taken by a band of street urchins, headed by the lovable Fagin, his fiendish henchman Bill Sikes and his loyal apprentice The Artful Dodger. Through his education in the fine points of pick-pocketing, Oliver makes away with an unexpected treasure...a home and a family of his own.

Oliver! - Oscarmom
Wonderful as always, just like when I was a little girl and my sister and I would act out the entire movie in our living room while playing the score over and over again. I watched with my boyfriend and he smiled and giggled at me as I sand every word along with these wonderful characters.Consider yourself at home!! - hilkayaker
I love this movie!! Such a good take on the Oliver Twist tale. Not as dark as the original story, but more kid friendly. A classic the whole family can enjoy and grow-up on. A little scary at times for the younger ones, but overall a good story and great song and dance numbers. My fav's are definately Ooompapa and the Rose song.A Classic - emersony
I absolutely love all the songs in this musical. The score is just beautiful and the lyrics are not saccharine and sappy but smart and snappy.
MArk Lester's performance is so angelic and he does fit the role perfectly. The actor that played Fagin was also very good. I can't beleive that he can perform all of those well choreographed routines as if he has been doing it all his life.
This deserves repeated viewings for the songs and the beautifully excuted dance numbers.
