Carol Reed
OLIVER
(1968)
Charles Dickens’ Oliver Twist, first published in 1838, is one of the best-known classics of English literature. Raised in a harsh workhouse, young Oliver is cast out after daring to ask for a little more gruel at dinner. He soon finds himself in the chaos of Victorian London, where he is taken in by a gang of street boys led by the enigmatic Fagin. There he learns the art of pickpocketing, but trouble is never far away.
In 1960, Lionel Bart adapted Dickens’ novel into the musical Oliver!, a landmark production that helped establish the modern British musical. Carol Reed’s acclaimed film adaptation followed in 1968, winning multiple Academy Awards.
Oliver! is remarkable for its vivid recreation of Victorian London, unforgettable characters such as Fagin and the irresistible Artful Dodger, and a score filled with memorable songs and dazzling choreography. A joyful classic that is well worth discovering—even if musicals are not usually your thing.
