"Best Film Musical" is kinda like "Best Form of Humane Torture" as far as I'm concerned!
I get the same response when I watch my all-time favorite West Side Story. "Ugh, daddy's watching the dancing ghetto pansy boys again. "
from my daughter I thought girls were supposed to be sensitive. Some people will just never understand.
Didn't expect to be thinking about film musicals tonight, but OK....
I love GR... always something to think/talk about here
My faves among those mentioned so far (some of which I didn't see):
Wizard of Oz, Fiddler on the Roof, Cabaret
(Honorable mention: Hard Day's Night, Woodstock, Blues Brothers, Stop Making Sense)
To toss out a few others:
1776 (fave song: the darkly haunting "Rum, Molasses, and Slaves")
Holiday Inn (a must-watch in our house at Christmastime)
Camelot (love the final scene: Arthur and "Sir Tom")
Annie (fave song: "Easy Street")
