Oliver!




Have any of you seen the 1968 musical movie, "Oliver!"? That was a year before I was born. I didn't know this movie was a success. I also didn't know an Oscar went to this successful movie, "Oliver!", for Best Picture at 1969 Academy Award show. I was a baby girl at that time. This movie is referring to a book title, "Oliver Twist" by Charles Dickens, adults' and children's book author. It is the story about a little boy named Oliver Twist played by Mark Lester. Oliver was an orphan since his birth and his mother's death in childbirth. There are more details to tell a story about this angel boy but I can't tell you, bloggers. You will find out about this movie when you rent it from either library or Blockbuster. I love listening to this excellent musical movie.

  2. I have actually seen the part of London where the movie was filmed... probably not there now though... it was right off the Thames on the south side..
