Despite it not being the most well-known Disney animated movie, Oliver & Company has since garnered a strong cult following and has become a fan favorite among many Disney fans.
Among the cast of fantastic actors that lent their voices to the movie are Joey Lawrence, Billy Joel, Cheech Marin, Bette Midler, and Dom DeLuise. The movie was particularly praised for its animation style and its musical numbers, with the song "Why Should I Worry?" receiving critical acclaim and being nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song. The movie became a minor hit, and some argue it is partially responsible for ushering in the ‘Disney Renaissance’ of the 90s. While Fagin is portrayed as a somewhat sympathetic character in the original novel, he is a far more likable character here. Oliver, in this case, is a homeless kitten who joins a gang of dogs, run by a human Fagin, to survive in the streets. Disney’s animated Oliver Twist-inspired classic Oliver & Companyis probably the most original and interesting interpretation of the Dickens classic.
