This is NOT the autobiographical docudrama I was expecting about one of this generations' most maligned, often misunderstood, unduly criticized, and underrated directors- Mr. Oliver Stone! Imagine my surprise when I see little English boys singing and dancing to start the movie...and for a minute I actually thought maybe this was how he started out...then I got to thinking...boy was I surprised...but pleasantly so....maybe Oliver Stone could direct Oliver and throw in a conspiracy theory or two...like why were there no little girl pickpockets in Fagin's keep? Yet all the boys sounded like girls when they sang...huh?...I bet they were hiding them...Mr. Stone could find out....

This isn't a bad movie, but it's almost criminal that it beat 2001: A Space Odyssey for 'Best Picture'.daisyaday
Wonderful! Of course, the bad guys are more interesting in any drama.locovoco

a very good musical with a great cast and songs,would like to give a special mention to the excellent Jack Wild and Ron Moody.buc86
Part of me kind of wishes this film was called "Fagin and Dodger", they are much more interesting characters.
