Small But Good Movie Musicals
This week I'm featuring a few movie musicals that I'm referring to as small movies because none of them, although very good films (in my opinion), received any Academy Award nominations for Best Film, Best Screenplay or Best Direction. However, the films I've selected are all based on Tony winning plays, including two that won the Pulitzer prize. Some of the films may have had some financial success and/or good reviews from the critics, but they are generally not considered "top" films. They are, however, in my opinion, movie musicals worth viewing more than once. I've seen each of them at least three times and enjoy them more with each viewing. The movies I've selected are "How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying," "Flower Drum Song," "Evita," and "A Chorus Line."
