What is an old musical film prior to 1960?

I am doing a film project for school and i need to watch two musical films. and one needs to be prior to 1960 and the other that has a logical progression from the classic(prior to 1960) to contemporary. I was thinking of doing the musical film "Chicago"(2003) but i dont know a musical film that i could do slightly related to it that is prior to 1960.(maybe one that includes dancing or something related to "chicago" .



If not, than any other suggestions for good musical films would be wonderful!!!!!!! Thank you soo much! you would really help me out a lot!

"Gentlemen Prefer Blondes," which is Marilyn Monroe's best musical. 1953.

Damn Yankees (1958). Bob Fosse choreographed it, and also directed the original B'way production of Chicago. The 2003 film uses many of his signature moves(the feline grace, the sharply-delineated poses, the black bowler hats, the "pop" into a pose, the overt sexuality).



It is past your stated time-frame, but Sweet Charity (1969, his film directorial debut) contains that most Fosse-esque of all Fosse routines: "Hey Big Spender"



All That Jazz (1979, also directed by Fosse) offers a thinly fictionalized version of Fosse (Roy Scheider as "Joey Gideon") and the heart attack he suffered while directing Chicago and simultaneously editing Lenny (1974) a biopic about pioneering "sick" stand-up comic Lenny Bruce. It just starts there. Not suitable for youngsters, although I loved it when it came out, and I was 16.



Fosse also had a "specialty" dance number, with Carol Haney, in Kiss Me Kate (1953).
The Wizard of Oz (1939)



Meet Me in St. Louis (1944)



State Fair (1945)



Easter Parade (1948)



White Christmas (1954)



Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (1954)



The King and I (1956)
Kiss Me Kate, might be a better choice
How about "Singing in the Rain" or "Gigi", lots of singing and dancing.Good luck!
You should do The Wizard of Oz. Maybe not the most original idea but it was a beautiful film, technicolor landmark. Then there's The Wiz, a film made in 1978. check them out on wikipedia and google them.
One of the top older films is "42nd Street", but there are lots of pre-1960 musicals:



Gigi



Seven Brides for Seven Brothers



Pal Joey



The King %26amp; I



Anchors Aweigh



On the Town



South Pacific



High Society



Kiss Me, Kate



Oklahoma!



Carousel



An American in Paris



Funny Face



Artists %26amp; Models



Guys %26amp; Dolls



White Christmas



Brigadoon



There's No Business Like Show Business



Call Me Madam



Singin' in the Rain



Gentlemen Prefer Blondes



Annie Get Your Gun



Summer Stock



Three Little Words



The Barkleys of Broadway



Easter Parade



The Pirate



The Harvey Girls



State Fair (1945)



Meet Me in St. Louis



Most of these are original musicals, while some are concocted from songs that already had been written. I wouldn't know which one to suggest to you.
Showboat is a good one.



The movie "All That Jazz"(1979) is kind of a predecessor to "Chicago".

Musical Styles Which Blended To Create New Genres?

I'd like to compare two sets, one great, one horrible



One Jazz and Rock combined to dreate Fusion



An amazing style of music pioneered by Jeff Beck The Mahavishnu Orchestra %26amp; Return To Forever



Two Metal and Rap compined to create the wretched Nu Metal



One of the absolute worst bottom of the barrel musicial styles in history, sperheaded by such talentless dreck as Korn Limp Biskit %26amp; Linkin Park



So, what rock musical styles can you came up with that have been created by the joining of two seperate musical styles?



Musical Styles Which Blended To Create New Genres?imax theater



Questions like this make me feel so out of the loop. I think the last New Genre I was aware of was Fusion. Sheesh! Being the age I am, I have found that I have a certain amount of energy to spend each day. Chasing sub-genres that have probably been made up by the media in the first place aren't high on my priority list. I have always approached music in a relatively simplistic manner: if I like it, then I listen to it, regardless of the genre. You know as well as anyone that any genre of music has at least one hidden little gem residing within it. I don't believe in sifting through all music to find them; I'm not that voracious or consumed. If I come across something that piques my interest because it made my ears happy, then I'll pursue it. Probably why I have so many single entries in my collection. I'm aware that we humans are hardwired to create little boxes of categories to make our world more palatable and orderly, but for myself, I realize that entropy is inevitable, so I embrace panache. Rock On, Darth.

First and foremost, do you hate nu-metal because you really dont like any nu-metal band such as Mudvayne, Slipknot, System Of A Down, and Chevelle (i know you only listed the s***ty ones to get people on your side) or are you simply jumping on the hate-nu-metal-bandwagon because all your friends are? Get a mind for yourself



Emo - the plague caused by meshing alternative and pop-punk. Nothing good can come from two bad pre existing genres.



Did I hit a nerve? LOL you actually took three posts to respond to my one comment lol. The truth can hurt sometimes, can it? Or if what I stated wasnt the truth, why are you taking so much offense to it?
You and Ryan are lame



Punk and Reggae made ska, Yay!



that guy wrote uncorrect, he spelled incorrect incorrectly....what a retard
it's sad how just because genres are semi-new, people are totally against them! People these days are so unaccepting of new music and there is so much hate. It's so annoying.



Sorry to have to write this in your answer but I have to say what's on my mind.



All music is joined in some way.. just like the messages sent out by punk and reggae can be so similar and so on
Ryan stfu about emo. Thats totally uncorrect; emo is not a blend of those two; at least the emotional hardcore and the indie emo scene weren't. Emotional hardcore was influenced by Husker Du and pioneered by former members of HxC punk band, such as Ian MacKaye and Guy Picciotto. The first indie emo band(SDRE) based their sound on post-hardcore bands like Fugazi, emotional hardcore, and post-punk band Mission of Burma. Bands after that lost most of the hardcore roots, but were still similar. Emo today is called emo becuase of a emo-influenced band, JEW, turned punk-pop.Emo today is generally bad and derived from pop punk, but bashing emo as a whole is retarded.
(:



well rap/so ganstah music mixed with screamo. ;o



i set my friends on fire covered solja boy
I too hate anything associated with rap......



I abolutely love Blues-rock %26amp; Southern-rock



ex: Tab Benoit, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Cream, Black Crowes, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Allman Brothers, Eric Clapton, etc etc
How about some Tropical music and Orchestra music to get Exotica genre. Martin Denny being one of the founding fathers of Exotica music. Also the Thrash Metal and Black metal creating Death metal genre, or Blues, Ragtyme, and Jazz to create Bluegrass. Bill Monroe comes to mind with creating Bluegrass. Throw in some crazy- a** chord progression, with electric instruments and you get Prog Bluegrass. Earl Scruggs and Lester Flatt comes to mind here. The list is endless.



Edit: I'm into about everything. I listen to most anything, but feel sometimes I have'nt heard anything looking at the music discussed on Answers.
the minutemen combined everything and punk...

I heard some actors talking today and said that Les Miserables auditions would be happening in the next 3 - 4 months. They were adults so I don't know how the children's roles are cast. It may well be that they are stage school children. I suggest that you keep an eye on The Stage for auditions, have linked to the website, but you may have to wait a day or so before you can read the ads because subscribers to the newspaper get to see them first. You could get your parents to email Cameron Mackintosh's office to find out how and when children are cast. You should not do this yourself, as you are considered a child and will have to have your parents permission.

Musical themed room...?

im redoing my room.



im looking for all types of musical things. I play piano and saxophone so any other instruments wouldnt make sense putting in my room



i would LOVE to find a cool wallie, or cutout (i have a horse one now) to put in my room...but i cant find any good ones. the only one i found was music notes, and i wish someone would make a grand piano one or something idk.

Musical scholarship to a college offering architecture courses?

yea...this may sound a tad strange, but I was thinking that mabey i would be able to get a vocal (musical) scholarship to a college, but because i want to be an architect, you can see my dilema. Has anyone ever heard of a college/University that offers musical schollarships and also offers courses in architecture?



Musical scholarship to a college offering architecture courses?concert venue



Colleges and universities of all sizes offer scholarships of all types.



The scholarship that you are awarded may not have anything to do with what you decide to study.



I've linked you to the Occupational Outook Handbook, a publication of the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. This entry will tell you about the architecture occupation. It will give you an overview of the nature of the work, the working onditions, education required, job outlook and earning potential.



Best of luck to you.
