Classic Movie Musicals
Comment:
It's one of the great American art forms, a magical mixture of sound and vision that has shaped our cultural landscape from the time when movies started singing nearly a century ago, right up to the present day. These classic movie musicals have given us some of our most beloved figures and some of our most cherished songs. Think Judy Garland, perhaps the greatest of them all, and her staggering array of signature tunes — the heartbreak of "The Man That Got Away," the innocence of "The Boy Next Door," the sheer exaltation of "Get Happy." All you need is to hear the music and the images come clearly to mind — Marilyn Monroe, shimmying in pink satin to "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend"; Fred Astaire, suave and sophisticated as he taps out a debonair "White Tie and Tails." It's the movies, it's music, it's magic.
