It has great music - a soundtrack CD was available.
I love this clip from 'Reds', and also the Internationale itself. Maybe it is a musical - I've never seen the whole film.

I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.

prof
I've never seen Star Wars
I think that trumps you 👽
My father had a colleague who swore blind there was a special secret society for people who:

1. Had never seen the sound of music
2. Had never held a driving licence of any sort, including a provisional licence
3. And some other random thing I cannot remember

And having not seen the Sound of Music makes you cool - not having seen Star Wars just makes you a bit odd ;)

No one can put up with me for more than a few days 😇😇😇

As a film perhaps

Which is, of course, how we should be judging it given that this is a list of the best film musicals not the best albums.

But surely the whole point about a musical is that the music is the key element - the clue is in the name. So I think you can so easily divorce the two. So a musical with the better music inherently starts in a stronger position.
