Review
A joyful and entertaining musical version of the classic Dickens story. Mark Lester plays Oliver the boy who escapes the workhouse and near starvation, only to fall into the hands of underworld villains. Featuring such great songs as "Food Glorious Food". One for all the family. Won Best Picture at 1968 Academy Awards.
