We have a spectacular poster for OLIVER! that I bought some years ago from Bruce Hershenson and which we had linen backed. It’s is for the U.S. premiere - pre-Oscar of course - of OLIVER! on December 10, 1968.
The poster is on our site. I am reminded of this because I received in the mail today, from Screen Archives Entertainment, the new Blu-Ray of the film and it is spectacularly re-mastered. The music sounds like it NEVER sounded in any video release - very good. And the overtures to both segments of the movie and the exit music is included. Also a complete soundtrack of the film is included. I have often wondered with the CD market as anemic as it is why more of these reissued Blu-Rays did not include the soundtrack. It’s amazing to me that this remastering is done by Twilight Films and not from Columbia. But I don’t know all the ins and outs of the Blu-Ray business. Anyway, Twilight has done an immaculate job on this. According to Screen Archives Entertainment’s website they are doing a limited pressing of 3000 discs. If you love this film, this is a wonderful Blu-Ray of it. I saw the film at the Windsor Cinerama in Houston. Even though this was not a CINERAMA film, they were showing it there on the deep-curved screen. That theater had absolutely terrific sound. Kirby Kirby McDaniel MovieArt Original Film Posters P.O.
