La La Land is really excellent (no relation I promise :joker: )

Not only is it a good story with good music it's wonderfully shot too. Damien Chazelle is a fantastic director. Makes Los Angeles look beautiful.

Cabaret is another great one too, although I hate how dumbed down/glamourized it is compared to the actual theatre show version. That's so, so dark.

Bugsy Malone of course.

I'm surprised no one hasn't mentioned The Lion King already.

Bugsy Malone of course.

I'm surprised no one hasn't mentioned The Lion King already.I was thinking about putting some animation ones in, Snow White and the seven dwarfs, Pinocchio, The Jungle Book, The Lion King. But I decided to leave them under the animation genre.

It would be between My Fair Lady and Finian's Rainbow for me.

I really like the vast majority of musicals however.

Love the one with Liza Minnelli. I've always been a big fan.
Anything with her I love.

To be fair, Disney animated movies are a different category.
