Musicals – Page 3 – Movie Valhalla

THE WIZARD OF OZ (1939)

Estimated to be the most-watched movie of all-time, it somehow works just as well 82 years later.

You know almost every song, but wow is this not actually a good movie. This is probably Christopher Plummer’s most famous role, but he also hated it.

My favorite Christmas movie, bar none, featuring Michael Caine as Scrooge and Gonzo the Great as Charles Dickens.

Great Irving Berlin songs, great performances, and a plot you shouldn’t think about too hard.

I have many questions about this animated musical and its story about oppressed Jewish immigrant mice.

Halloween decides to take over Christmas in what has become one of my favorites.

Is it a hard hitting drama about small town life? Is it a musical? The answers lie in Kevin Bacon’s angry dancing.

This 1990s animated movie was an afterthought even to its own studio, but has developed something of a cult following since.

The Muppets take their act to Broadway in one of the definitive movies of my childhood.

Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers bringing dancing to maybe its greatest heights. The rest of the movie, who cares?
