We present a preliminary analysis of homogeneous, deep and accurate multiwavelength U, B, V, and I data of the old LMC cluster Reticulum. The comparison between theory and observations seems to suggest that the reddening toward this cluster is a factor of 2 larger than suggested in the literature. Both cluster distance and age are in agreement with the canonical values. Finally, the main goals of this project are briefly discussed.
