The Cinemaholic's 10 Best Movie Musicals of All Time

"What do we want in a movie musical? We want high-note entertainment, large-scale audacity and glorious, sweeping singing. Musicals over the years, whether original, or adapted from their stage counterparts, have attempted to redefine what a musical means and in the process delivered both game-changing and middling cinema. A lot of the current generation doesn't seem have the patience and the zeal required to thoroughly relish a musical. They say they don't see the point of singing when you can talk. And some films do reaffirm their beliefs, there are films that work so effectively and with such effortless charm, you find yourself humming their unforgettable tunes and reminiscing their optimistic, surreal view of the world. They prove, beyond doubt, why talk, when you can sing. With that said, here is the list of top classic musical movies, ranked in order of how well they work, not only as a part of the genre they belong to, but as well." - thecinemaholic.com
