It's up there for sure. My top 5 includes the likes of the Back to the Future trilogy and as I get older, Oliver! certainly is climbing the ranks. The ending sequence when Nancy is trying to save Oliver once and for all is a very special piece of film. The way the scene transitions to music, her joy and concern, and how Bill gains zoom vision, very real.
Ron's charismatic performance of Fagan was utterly outstanding!! The guy had so much energy and his charisma really oozed through his character. Honesty the guy was a legend.
Just hearing Jack Wild (Dodger)'s voice in the end "so long, fare the well, pip pip cheerio" made my day brilliant, I have no words, can't belive you're gone!
I think this is the most touching song in the musical because it genuinely shows how much Fagin actually cares for the boys it's sweet, in a comical sort of way
@@southwestsearch welcome to Victorian london where children labor was such a common thing that it was basically all the work force. Also he's the organiser. The kids robbed the adults who wouldn't give them a second glance. He sells what they find and uses the money to give them a liveing. They'd be dead otherwise
Ive met three cast members from this film...Mark Lester (Oliver) Ron Moody (Fagin) and Shani Walis (Nancy) all three very humble and wonderful people to meet
I love this movie so much. This song in particularly shows the duality of Fagin's character...trying to survive, trying to protect his clan, but knowing that nothing comes for free in the slums. He does love them so much, as best he can, and protects them wherever he can...but also protects his own interests and teaches the kids how harsh the world can be, how strong they have to be to survive. I always fall on the side of Fagin being a good guy in a bad situation, overall.
It is no surprise that Oliver! got 11 Academy Award Nominations and WON 6 including BEST PICTURE, no other film in history was more deserving than OLIVER! !!!!!!!
@@eamonclark4952 yes!!! I have seen both Oliver in 1968 and Scrooge in 1970 at the Movie Theaters. Since then I have watched them both over and over!! I had both Movie Soundtracks,,, the best Musicals,,, unforgettable!!! I even read both books by Charles Dickens!!! I can still sing all of the songs and I am 63 yo 😊❤📽📽❤🎵🎶🎶🎶💿💿🎵🎶🎶🎶 The acting was wonderful,, the cast was 👏 amazing 💯💯💯
The Arrogant, Vulgar, Wooden Julie Andrews was a terrible Maria Von Trapp and was miscast in the movie. Actress, Singer, Dancer Sally Anne Howes would have been perfect in the role. Chrostopher Plummer was miscast as well. The Real Maria Von Trapp was more Catholic than the Pope and was just a house cleaner at the convent. The Real Maria Von Trapp had no intention of being a nun. She bossed the Mother Superior and al the Nuns! That is way the convent sent her to be the housekeeper at the Von Trapp Family Home. Captain Von Trapp was a man of small stature and the Von Trapp Home in Austria was much more modest in reality than depicted in the movie. Captain Von Trapp was a gentle loving father, and his first wife was the love of his life! The Von Trapp family escaped by train. They never hide at the convent. They never walked over the mountains to escape because they would have walked right into Adolf Hitler's Compound!
What a movie/musical. Very special and heart warming. Fagan uses the children to his advantage by pick pocketing. Though he keeps them dry, warm and safe. He is quite soft really and was probably the 'Dodger' back in his days.
For anyone who can't understand the boys' part in the background, here it is: We must disappear, we'll be back here, today, perhaps tomorrow! We'll miss you, too, it's sad but true, that parting is such sweet sorrow! That is the background lyrics for the boys. This is such a great song, and part of the musical! :)
I was born in the late fall of 1978. The 1968 Classic Iconic Musical Movie Oliver! is one of my favorite movies of all time. I Love this Classic musical number!
+Ricky M Oh he'll be back. Each time you play this movie or this song. & if you can get others to never forget this masterpiece,then they'll all be back soon. I love this film that's why I say cheerio, not goodbye:)
Thanks for putting these songs up. My aunt recently passed away and we used to enjoy this movie together. I hadn't seen it in a while and its a comfort to watch and hear the songs again. I have got to find a copy of my own. *thumbs up*
I had the pleasure of a pint and a natter with this lovely man one afternoon in the Haywayne pub in Southgate,,, he was sparkling company and I think he appreciated the fact I'm a film buff and he shared many stories about the film greats 👍
My adorable 2 yr old grandson dances to this - a remarkable feat after being born at Boston Children's Hosp and shortly after having a stroke and then heart surgery!
I fucking love this film! In the UK, whilst growing up in the 70's and early 80's Oliver was on the telly every Christmas. Wonderful memories. Loved ones gone. Never to return. Like Christmas's past. But, never forgotten. Happy days.
0:50 if you couldn’t hear this properly, the boys were singing: “We must disappear, we’ll be back here today perhaps tomorrow. We’ll miss you too, it’s sad but true that parting is such sweet sorrow. It’s him that pays the piper. It’s us that calls the tune. So long fare thee well pip pip cheerio we’ll be back soon”.
how can they sing and bounce down wooden steps that well and not make a mistake? that is just amazing! and the kids doing the foot click! i have tried several times myself to do that as well, but i can't do that! UGHH!!
Jist a timeless classic. Ron Moody's portrayal of Fagin lives forever as do all the cast. Perfect casting and songs, choreography, the whole damn lot. Brilliant!!!
Memes are real, 'Dodger' didn't die of throat cancer. It was Fagin who had the little neck problem. About Mr. Wilds little problem. You know some may say charity starts at home. It starts when the man of the house starts it, and if it didn't start at the bottom of the first bottle there is no evidence it's going to start at the bottom of a thousand bottles. IE Mr. Wild needed to be the one recognising his little problem. He changed in later life but through his twenties he self asserts he was an alcoholic. Even his wife walked out blaming the alcohol or Wild's drinking of it. Is there really much point telling the alcoholics to steady on with the stuff? Some people have thought of him a lot. Before and after his passing and some whilst he had throat cancer and when he died or after his operation. But clearly a problem exits in that often when people need specialist treatment, it's only the specialist who can help or have licenses to assist with the specialist treatment. I think he was doing very well to have got to grips with his drug problem/s and had in fact in his own way made his own modest return to work, entertainment, stage and screen. But nothing so accomplished as his performance in 'Olive' which ignited his sudden rise to stardom as it had done to only a handful of youths before. So really his was very absent from the lime light of British theatre and so people had not the opportunity to see his performances as he worked mostly in the USA. So people did think about him. But there is very little the majority could or can do when a serious illness or disease strikes other than wish him well or help him to the specialist treatment centre where those with the specialist qualifications could maybe help. My guesstimate is upwards of 90% of the population when told a person has throat cancer would have no idea how to react in any known way that could help. I think he did have well wishes and people who cared for him.
Fun ! Dickens always had a sparkle in the eye and an underlying comment, The musical captures it quite well. Learn to appreciate it. Satire is fueled by the tip of the hat and a wink of the eye. Read between the lines my dear, sweet citizens.
Increidible movie, I was a kid like this boys and I enjoy every second of my time only playing in the street with my gang in holidays time. Nice days of my pass
When I showed this clip to my friend and he asked when this movie was made, and I told him 1968. That was 19 years before we were born and he said those kids in this movie are our parents age
josh suy I seriously doubt it was that way in real life. Remember this is fiction, mk. You seriously think street urchins were treated well by their bosses?
z0ZzZ0z It's more to do with how Charles Dickens wrote his characters. Often they were stereotypes of "very good" or "very bad" personalities, whereas Fagin was perhaps one of Dickens grayest characters, expressing both good and bad intentions. The musical changed Fagin to a more sympathetic and fatherly character from how he appears in the novel, in which he was only concerned for himself and his own preservation, even to the point of hoping that if his boys were arrested they were hanged before they could inform on him. In order to prevent this, Fagin treats his boys well, giving them food and shelter, which makes him seem good and caring, but his motives are clear. By forming a bond with the boys he exploits their desperation, providing them a "home" makes it harder for them to turn against him, even though he makes them into thieves to earn his care.
+josh suy Fagin was bad as a thief but was good to grant Oliver's fortune. Also yes I agree, the Workhouse staff including Mr. Bumble disrespected Oliver and even the undertaker's disrespected Oliver.
i used to watch this film daily but its been like 10 years since i last watched it. i used to love this song and watching it now fagin is a fucking joker hes such a character, made me crack up so much the way he hops about playing his flute. they picked the perfect ppl to play fagin, artful dodger and oliver. great classic, if anyone tries to remake it they are simply wasting thier time.
Ron Moody....what a fantastic, charismatic, legendary performance he gave in this glorious movie. It will live on as one of the greatest musical creations of all time. He was completely robbed of the Oscar that year. Others will try but there will be only one Fagin for me and thats Mr Ron Moody.

I love how Fagin’s face visibly softens when Oliver sings. Ron Moody is perfect
Oliver voice is weird
Adam Johnson
I don’t think he actually sung his part
@@billylardner He didn't. It was a girl who sang.
rstein926 Not just any girl, Oliver’s parts were sung by the directors daughter
@@A_wild_pumpkin_appears AH,,,someone else saw the making of...yes, thats why...didnt work.
This was played at my grandads funeral last week. His favourite song. Brings back great memories

Hopefully he will be back soon.
Bless that's lovely
He is in Heaven AMEN GOD BLESS CHRIST 47 CASON OLD MAN RHONDA JARED AND ALL OF HIS FAMILY
Never was an Oscar more justified than that of Ron Moody's...
Agree 👍
I didn’t win in lead Actor, but probably would have won in supporting.
..he was nominated but did not win. He should have won!
Crikey, thanks. I was sure he'd won...@@uszatku9417

Ron Moody & Jack Wild...
I know you won't be back soon,
But I and many other's will remember this tune..
Damn can't never get over how perfect that slide down the stairs is 👌
Going up is much more difficult
Did they use some kind of rubber stairs? Even as a child I think I would hurt my tail bone if I slid down wooden stairs like that.
If yer talking bout the part at 1:30 then it all depends on the type of wood and how exactly ya go down them. If ya hit the middle of the steps so most of yer weight gets caught amd spread by the stairs itself ya won't feel a thing. Amd judging by the bounce in the stairs itself they got a springy wood type. Definitely no oak
Ron Moody and Jack wild were outstanding in this film.
True😭😭😭
Always been gutted they never made the sequel they had planned
Sad that they both are no longer with us 😥
I think that that is the most prestigious Oscar that a film 🎥 can win
So was Mark Lester!
I love how Fagin is personally touched by Oliver’s extra little verse. Ron Moody absolutely perfect every second he is on screen. Robbed of an Oscar.
How come he was robbed of an Oscar?
Don’t worry dodger pickpocketed the Oscar soon after also I’m called oscar @@DenyaProjects
@@DenyaProjectsDuh. Because he didn't get one.
This is, by far, not only the best musial ever made, but possibly also the best movie ever made. Full stop.
I can argue with that. Although I can agree it is one of the top musicals but I also hold that spot for sound of music.
I agree. There's people out there not giving it a chance because it's set at an older time. They don't get the beauty of films/music in this era.
It's up there for sure. My top 5 includes the likes of the Back to the Future trilogy and as I get older, Oliver! certainly is climbing the ranks. The ending sequence when Nancy is trying to save Oliver once and for all is a very special piece of film. The way the scene transitions to music, her joy and concern, and how Bill gains zoom vision, very real.
This is literally the ONLY musical I have ever liked.
There's probably no single Best Musical or Best Movie for everybody, but OLIVER! is my favorite.
1:08 there's "London Bridge is falling down" playing in the background. I've listened to this thing a gazillion times and I only heard it just now xD
Fangornmmc Haha never realised that before!
Fangornmmc hahaha
omg ive never noticed that before and ive seen this movie millions of times lol
Fangornmmc me too
Fangornmmc I JUST REALISED!!!
SO many memories watching this as a kid. This is definately the best version, Ron Moody and Jack Wild.... awesome!
Ron's charismatic performance of Fagan was utterly outstanding!! The guy had so much energy and his charisma really oozed through his character. Honesty the guy was a legend.
If you love Fagin so much then why don't you marry him?
Just a little suggestion 😉
Just hearing Jack Wild (Dodger)'s voice in the end "so long, fare the well, pip pip cheerio" made my day brilliant, I have no words, can't belive you're gone!
I love the little detail of Oliver being behind the other boys and not knowing the choreography
I think this is the most touching song in the musical
because it genuinely shows how much Fagin actually cares for the boys
it's sweet, in a comical sort of way
So true!
Yeah, right! Sends orphan's out to do his dirty work while he stays at home.

Yeah. He is a contrast to the book version of Fagin who didn't care what happened to his boys as long as he was safe from the law
Oh shit 12years ago comment
"LINE UP!" Great line. Anyone else like the way he says that.
I ALWAYS HERE "LOINE UP!" BECAUSE OF HIS ACCENT AWE
There is something so magical about this music, these lyrics and the superb cast of this version of Oliver
This movie,,music and the acting are absolutely incredible!!! Whoever did not see this is truly missing out!!! ❤😊💕💕💕💕

You were both fantastic
Love this movie
Ron Moody was awesome as Fagin, his movement of feet was so graceful, reminds me of Ray Bolger movement in The Scarecrow in Wizard of Oz
So was Bill Sykes aka Oliver Reed.
Ron Moody smashed it.
Amazing performance.
Fine performance by Ron Moody as Fagin, I agree. Think it was the best part Ron ever played. He was tailor made for it.
@@HelenCampbell-zk1ve But they changed Fagin so much from the original book that you wouldn't think they're the same character.
Ron Moody had been the original Fagin in the premiere production of OLIVER! in London.
Incredible musical. This and Sound of Music best ever.
And Mary Poppins
And Scrooge (1970)

That would explain why in the musical I always saw a bit of a father-son thing going on with the two. That makes a lot of sense!
The Dodger and Fagin, I mean-
Great actor...Loved Fagin him and Nancy are my favorites.
Ron Moody and Shani Wallis are amazing.
The101genco I'm Nancy for our yr 6 production
I'm Fagin:)
So was Mark Lester!
no musical will ever come close to this-pure excellent
Oliver is such an amazing character, glad he got a good ending. He is brave, kind, gentle and innocent. He deserves love.
**suspicious look**
The vitality in Fagan's performance is astonishing.
For anyone who can't understand the boys' part in the background, here it is:
We must disappear, we'll be back here, today, perhaps tomorrow!
We'll miss you, too, it's sad but true, that parting is such sweet sorrow!

I love how in a way it's like a proud father sending his kids off to school
and now this will be stuck in my head for eternity.... well done music craving... you are my undoing.
I love listening for all the different instruments in this song: piccolo, cornet, English horn, bassoon, etc.
"We know the nosey policeman, but they don't know this tune!" My favorite part 🤣🤣😭😭
This is a lyric change from the stage show, where the line is, "We know the Bow Street Runners ... "
This Movie was one of the great classics!
Brilliant film..Everyone of the boys in this movie are on point...Fagan is awesome..Thanks Ron Moody..
I saw this movie in the summer of 68 on vacation with mom at myrtle beach when i was nine. Loved it then and love it still after 54 years.
the greatest musical of all time.

I love that this is how he teaches them the "return code/password". You''ll see Dodger whistle this up a vent when he comes home later in the movie.
This scene is for me the best of any movie. I can watch it a hundred times. Those young boys complimented fagan beautifully.

I have been singing this ALL day and still can't stop
Love love this musical
Must be the best musical ever in the cinema, in all aspects: actors, singers, props, dancers, choreography everything!
"Do not forget this tune!" - Fagin (0:23)
We won't Fagin, we won't!
Great dancing, singing, camerawork..all done indoors on a soundstage!
I fucking love this film! In the UK, whilst growing up in the 70's and early 80's Oliver was on the telly every Christmas. Wonderful memories. Loved ones gone. Never to return. Like Christmas's past. But, never forgotten. Happy days.
So many great characters and songs. A solid favourite of mine, from a man who dislikes musicals.
I come back to this video all the time to re-watch! It's just amazing 🤗
the choreography in the film is amazing
Oh my goodness yes it is,, amazing,, the whole movie!!!:)))
Onna White received an Oscar for the film's choreography.
THIS SONG IS SO FLIPPING CATCHY. Gotta love Fagin. This film is the best thing to exist
I. Gordon what the hell

how can they sing and bounce down wooden steps that well and not make a mistake? that is just amazing! and the kids doing the foot click! i have tried several times myself to do that as well, but i can't do that! UGHH!!
Lots of rehearsals and retakes possibly!!?
Absolutely love this song. And love that there was no power disparity and paedophilic sexual depravity behind this production.
I swear to go I could listen to dodger speak for ages his voice is so soothing😍😂 RIP jack wild 😭
Jist a timeless classic. Ron Moody's portrayal of Fagin lives forever as do all the cast. Perfect casting and songs, choreography, the whole damn lot. Brilliant!!!
RON MOODY PERFECT in all he did He had no equal in character acting BRILLIANT NUFF SAID
This movie is creative genius unlike the crappy musicals you get from today they've definitely aged like a fine wine.
That's what has me worried about the Wicked movie they're making...
ONE WORD WONDERFUL
This movie is so cute ;3;
I love it so much. Till this day it's a favorite of mine ❤️
And Dodger is probably the cutest thing to ever exist
We done both our shows yesterday, I cried at the end of it, this song just makes me think of everyone is gonna be back soon :') makes me cry
The Artful Dodger has classic swag
Well his name is "Artful" Dodger ;)
Best musical ever made
My favourite movie of all time 😌
Random, my mum was in the same nursery class as Jack Wild. My Grandparents knew his Aunt and Uncle
Imagine a guy singing this song before robbing you
They're called street performers, lol
Pick A Pocket Or Two would be better in my opinion!
Ron Moody and Jack Wild, damn they were great actors. They are gone boys, but we can still watch this masterpiece.
