First, it was the famous novel by Charles Dickens back in 1838, then it hit the silver screen with many silent and sound ones. Then it hit Broadway with the well-known musical version ... until finally it came back to theatres and won the Oscar for Best Picture of 1968. Oliver! is the fourth musical of the 1960s to win the top prize. Its mixture of the dark story of a young boy escaping an orphanage, and wonderful music delighted audiences worldwide. But does this film still resonate with movie lovers today? Looking back, does this Carol Reed directed film still deserve to be regarded as the best of that year? Listen to film critic Jack Ferdman's take on it as he analyzes everything about Oliver!, as well as many other films from that year, and hear what film he gives his Rewatch Oscar of 1968 to.
