The 1968 Oliver! Movie Cast

[afriendofbean]

This was a nice movie, and it was a nice ending how Oliver finally made it home safely with Mr. Brownlow. However, I guess an even nicer and happier ending is that it showed Fagin finding his long lost wife (even though it never mentioned he was a husband) and all of Fagin's thief kids (including the Artful Dodger) finding their lost parents which helped Fagin and the kids feel that they don't need to steal anymore. All it showed was Fagin and the Artful Dodger dancing and singing at the end.

[JSKTS]

Jack was so good as the artful dodger I cant believe hes gone. But his performance will live on foreverrrrrrrrr

[afriendofbean]

@JSKTS Yes, he was great. His singing sounds great, especially with his accent.

[crybabya1]

my lester is my all time favorite child actor!!!!!!!!!hurrayyyyyyy!!!!­!!!!!!im fro the philippines

[TFrOcks25]

I love how Mark Lester played the title role, but Jack Wild was nominated for an oscar and had more lines and actually sang .

[LeonieLuvsMichaelJac]

Bless Him!!

Lovee Youu Jackk My Cousin!! :) X

R.I.P!!

[rtyush]

Wow jack wild looked a bit like tyger drew-honey in the film.

[charlisweep]

Shani!!!!!!!!!!! xx

[Dinzzaa]

This movie was very well-casted. The only problem was Mark Lester couldn't sing, but it was common for musicals to have dubbed singing voices. The rest of the cast were amazing though. They were all capable of bringing both the light mood from the stage musical and the darkness from the Oliver Twist Novel. Their singing and dancing were good as well.

[JuanMacready]

It's a pity they couldn't dub Letzer's "acting" as well.

[charlisweep]

Shani Wallis!!!! Lengend, fantastic actress & singer! One beautifully talented lady! xx

[Isleofskye]

Great film, brilliantly acted all-round.

Incredible OMISSION in the cast list though.

No Peggy Mount or Fred Emney ( Workhouse scenes) but one of THE greatest British Actors=LEONARD ROSSITER( Rising Damp/Reggie Perrin etc) not even included! RIDICULOUS!

Ron Moody STILL going strong 40 years later! What A Pro...

Tremendous and amazing that ALL 150 lads in the workhouse were White Londoners.

That was 1967/68 but now 40 years later most White Londoners have lrft for The Suburbs..

[PeterFirthFan]

They sure made a big mistake casting the absolutely talentless Lester in the title role.

[darla41124]

did jack wild die?

[MOTAROOO]

Yap.

[Brenda2OOO]

The brilliantly talented Jack Wild succumbed to cancer in 2006, but he lives on in his great performances.

[LeonieLuvsMichaelJac]

@darla41124 - Yes :)..

[alexthegrait]

[Degrassilover10]

Lionel Bart made a second play about Dodger. Of course it was called Dodger! I want to see it.

[coltmanm]

[afriKENN]

[XxXwaitingforuXxX]

[meanwiddlekid]

@XxXwaitingforuXxX

Did you know that the original Artful Dodger on the London stage was played by Davy Jones of The Monkees fame?

[solyire]

A superb cast and movie. Still on of my favourites; Old Will would have been happy.

[loveheartbabe]

Jack Wild, Oliver Reed and Harry Secombe are all dead. =[ Jack Wild had throat cancer and dided i believe, Harry Secombe died of old age. and Oliver Reed died by committing suicide. Sad indeed=[ Oliver is a great movie... Great clip too:)

[MOTAROOO]

I really hope Jack Wild, Oliver Reed and Harry Secombe are in a better Place now, God bless their Souls.

[lollypopgurl2929]

guess what u may like Jack Wild but i like Shani Wallis wayy better and u know what shes still livin yay

[bootdownthedoor]

Shani Wallis IS one talented lady. But you have to admit, Jack owned that movie.

[Candie4JC]

mark lester is fine!!! but i had no idea that was jack wild in this as well... i think this and HR were his only good roles.

[bootdownthedoor]

Oh honey, you did not just say that. :o

He was amazing in all of his movies. Melody and The 14 come to mind. It's only because they didn't receive as much publicity as Oliver! and Pufnstuf that he wasn't as recognized for them.

[bootdownthedoor]

ROFL Notice how we don't care much about the rest of the cast.

[OOHLALAAS]

LMAO, thats what I was thinking lmaooo . I still like Ron Moody and Shani Wallis and Mark Lester. Oliver Reed was good, too though. But Jack is the love.

[OOHLALAAS]

What a beautiful cast indeed! (ahem, cough cough, Jack Wild<3. )

[MOTAROOO]

I really wish Jack Wild is in a better Place now.

[OOHLALAAS]

I think he is. I love him. I wish he was still alive.

[punkrocklove177]

Jack wild=<3

[bootdownthedoor]

Amen to that.
