best musical

Rating: 10/10 (3 May 2014)

I was never a fan of musicals, and did not have any desire to see this movie. However, once it started, I was hooked. Every aspect of this film was wonderful. Between the chemistry and quirkiness of the cast, there is no way anyone could not enjoy it. There was a perfect amount of seriousness offset by a lot of humor. Also, the bright colors really stuck out and made this film ten times better. The whole set in general was really outstanding. For the time it was made, I felt that the props and settings for all of the scenes were magnificent and ahead of its time. All around it was a wonderful film and made me have a new appreciation for not only musicals but the way early films were made.
