The thing that amazes me about Jack Wild in Oliver is his Cockney accent. I am a born, and bred Londoner and I always thought he was until I read his Biography which said he was born just outside of Manchester. His family did move to London 3 years before he made this film, but I cannot imagine his accent changed from Manchurian to Cockney in such a short time, this shows what a great child actor Jack Wild was.

Man, Jack Wild was really good in this. The best dodger no doubt. He will be missed dearly.

One of my favorite songs from the musical. I also love Where Is Love, It's a fine life, I'd do Anything and Oom Pah Pah

his accent is very strong! usually accents dont show when singing. i love Dodger's voice

Dear God, I'd forgotten how utterly brilliant this musical is! Magnificent!

This Musical, ‘Oliver’. I remember seeing this with my Family. I am 63 yrs., of age now. I think I was about 10 Or 12 Years of age. It Was & Still Is Just Amazing. Brilliant. Sensational. Stupendous in Every Way, & Every Actor, Director(s), Creator(s), Writer(s), Producer(s), Camera Team, Fantastic Everyone! Make-up Artists, Sound Team, Lighting Team. (In Any Order). It Was Certainly A Brilliant Musical & The Great Jack Wilde, God Bless. God Bless To All In Connection to The Musical. Thanks for ths Opportunity to Express my view. Thank You to All. Wow, It’s A Marvellous Musical. X♥️🥰

Jack did this song so well. A true child actor!

You can tell Mark Lester and Jack Wild formed a great friendship during the film. Can only imagine how heartbroken Lester was when Wild died.

Nothing will ever beat these classics ever again

I saw this movie at Tara theater in Atlanta in1969 ! Best time of my life! The opening credits were brilliant! Knew this going to be real quality piece of art. Onna white got aSpecial Oscar! The song is one of the best ever put on film. Period! Especially the ending . masters at work all through the film 2001 was a great film . but not the best of1968! Real talent all around!!

What an absolute gem of a musical !!! Wish they still made'em lyke that.

This movie has rank with one of the greatest musicals ever, If memory serves me, I think it won 10 Acadamy Awards. There is one person who was behind the scenes that Does NOT get hardly any credit for thier brilliance in association for this movie. Her name was Onna White and she choreographed this musical. Her Choreography remains some of the best ever in Hollywood. She won a "special category" Oscar for her choreography in this movie.

and she deserved it. not only is the choreography flawless but the actors look believable and not forced while doing these awesome moves. i saw the film version of Hello Dolly a year after Oliver and the dancers looked silly, overdoing it with goony looks on their faces. Oliver got it right a year earlier.

What a spectacle! Have always loved this scene.

I was five when this film was made in 1968, was in awe of it then when I first saw it and still am.

Love Jack Wild. He is so totally amazing!

This film is so ingrained in my psyche … I watched it over and over as a kid. I really thought I was Nancy lol.

Love the orchestra. They sound like real pros!

Your memory is right on, he did play "jimmy" in the tv show H.R. Puffnstuff, I had fun watching him in my teens, luv the puppet flute, who was his companion.

Not a lick of divershity. Glorious.

I remember this! I havn't heard it in so long! Thanks for putting this up (and with subtitles).

A fantastic musical and hard to believe that Jack Wild was not a Londoner like myself. I believe he was Manchester born.

The cutest little pickpocket ever.

this scene makes me wanna get up and dance, especially from 5:39. this films stands it's test of time

I am from the USA and I love this song and this musical.

i love this part! it's so playful and it's such a wonderful song:)

Jack really was a pro. In the scene where they go down the slide, a fish ends up on the slide. He had the presence to yank the fish off there before Oliver can get to the bottom.

Surprisingly, this is kind of accurate. You ever been to an english soccer game? 1000's of people can randomly start singing songs that are made up on the spot. It's like they communicate telepathically or something lol. Its like this video but with less dancing and a lot more cursing haha

Consider yourself - a drunk. Consider yourself - a chain smoker. Unfortunately Jack Wild, who played the Artful Dodger here, died of oral cancer. He attributed it to his heavy drinking and smoking. He was a talented fellow.

i wish i could just burst out in to song !!!!

What a superb movie!!!

I just saw this in a theatre. Bryan Sevener played Oliver...it was really good! He did a great job!

This is the best song from the film and the happiest as well and second longest at nearly 7 minutes Who will Buy is 8 minutes this just lifts you back up from the horrible and sad Where is Love that just makes you sad this makes you happy again

im only a kid not telling my age , but i was looking on prime and this film was on there so i was like cool ill watch this and literally i loooove it its my fav film rn

This is my favourite song throughout the whole musical! :) And is it just me, or does Dodger have that look that makes people's heats melt? :)

@JuanMacready A lot of critics felt this was a rare occasion in which the film version was better than the stage version. Carol Reed and Onna White got great reviews, as well as Lionel Bart and most of the Cast.

I had never heard of this, but I had watched Oliver and Company(Disney) and my friends were talkin about Oliver!, and I thought they were talkin about Oliver and Company! Lol

i was in this play. memories. memories.
