Time to check out Oliver! released in 1968.

In this award-winning adaptation of the Broadway musical based on the Charles Dickens novel, 9-year-old orphan Oliver Twist (Mark Lester) falls in with a group of street-urchin pickpockets led by the Artful Dodger (Jack Wild) and masterminded by the criminal Fagin (Ron Moody). When Oliver's intended mark, Mr. Brownlow (Joseph O'Conor), takes pity on the lad and offers him a home, Fagin's henchman Bill Sikes (Oliver Reed) plots to kidnap the boy to keep him from talking.

While Oliver may seem like sort of a blank slate he is the driving force of the film. This (as of 2025) the last G rated film to win the Oscar for Best Picture. Ron Moody (Fagin) was nominated for Best Actor while Jack Wild (Dodger) was nominated for Best Supporting Actor Oscar There is two changes I would make. 1. Fagin doesn't lose his treasures so then when he does his song at the end makes him contemplate if it was worth it only to realize when he finds Dodger yeah it was. The second change I would make is switch the final scenes around so we see Oliver make it home first then it goes to Fagin and Dodger's scene rather than the other way around. The song "Food Glorious Food" originates from here, but you heard it in Ice Age The Meltdown.

Okay so explain the whole Overture/Intermission/Entr'acte/Exit Music this was a common thing for big musicals and epics of the 1950's and 60s as these kind of films were an experience. The overture was to give the audience a chance to make it to their seats while hearing music themes that would be in the film. While Intermission was usually the halfway point of the film to give the audience a chance to stand up, head to the concession stand, bathroom, etc before the second half started. Then entr'acte was played as the audience made their was back to their seats. You'll find all or most of this in films like Ten Commandments, Ben-Hur, My Fair Lady, Happiest Millionaire, etc. Plus you saw a couple with this already with Hello, Dolly and The Sound of Music.

Great reaction Tim! Huge thanks to the Patron who recommended this movie to you! This is one of my favorite musicals! As it was already mentioned, this musical won the Best Picture Oscar for 1968. It even got a Best Actor nomination for Ron Moody who played Fagin and a Best Supporting Actor nomination for Jack Wild who played Dodger. The little boy who played Oliver was friends with Michael Jackson! You may have seen Oliver Reed who played Bill Sikes in GLADIATOR (2000) with Russell Crowe. He played the old guy who owned all those gladiators. Carol Reed, the director of this film, is also the uncle of Oliver Reed. Well, thanks for a great reaction Tim! 😊
