I saw a weird movie called "Romance and Cigarettes" with Susan Sarandon and James Gandolfini

- that was the strangest musical I have ever seen

Many years ago on HBO (I think), there was this silly movie called "The First Nudie Musical." It had Cindy Williams (I think that was her name) of Laverne and Shirley fame (she was Shirley)(I think)(no, she did not get nude, at least in the parts that I saw). Obviously targeted to prurient interest by the title (so you might ask why I was watching it other than prurient interest or idle curiosity, and I have no answer. I just know I did), it turned out to be a fairly amusing cheesy comedy with decent musical numbers.

Also, the only episode I ever watched of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" was the musical one, and I thought it was creative and exceedingly well done.

The Birdcage is not a musical. It is based on the French movie La Cage aux Folles. There was a Broadway musical based on the French movie, but The Birdcage is not based on the musical.
Well, that was confusing! :umm:

Oh, to answer your question, yes, I like musicals. We just saw Pippin on Broadway. It was wonderful!

There is singing. There is dancing. It counts.

I saw La Cage live. I loved it.

We watched Jekyll and Hyde tonight. Didn't enjoy that at all. But I think ds likes watching how things are done.

Cringe worthy is what came to mind when I watched that.

Not a big musical, I must admit. There is one I do love though and I'd love to see it - the war of the worlds.
