Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk:


This spectacular new Special Edition includes brand new featurettes and contains exciting new interactive material that will take you into the very heart of Dickens' London and the musical world of Oliver!. Packed with unmissable features including quizzes, sing-alongs and dance-alongs, this DVD will allow the whole family to experience the magic of Oliver! as never before this Christmas.



Lionel Bart’s hit musical of Dickens' classic tale was directed by film legend Carol Reed (The Third Man, Our Man in Havana) and features an impeccable cast, including Ron Moody, Harry Secombe, Oliver Reed, Jack Wild and a young Mark Lester as orphan Oliver. The brilliant cast, heartfelt score and stunning choreography earned Oliver! an incredible six Academy Awards, including Best Picture.



Young Oliver (Lester) is an orphan who escapes the cheerless life of the workhouse and takes to the streets of 19th century London.

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.
