Musicals....

Ok, this is a very revealing post for me, so it's tough to put out there for you, but, for the sake of journalism, or something....I like musicals. There, I said it. Those cheesy movies/plays where people are dancing and singing in a choreographed way as if it were spontaneous. I wish it would happen in real life too. Could you imagine a dance number coming out of nowhere. It'd be amazing to join in on that. But I've found that there are genuinly really good stories snuck in with the massive musical numbers. These are stories that tug at our hearts and make us enjoy being human. I watched Moulin Rouge with my sister last night and to my dismay, it was an excellent story. I'm sure that ruffles many a feather, but it just impressed me as over the top, funny, but with an element of real deep humanity. Granted, the fact that they fell in love in 2.5 seconds was slightly ridiculous, but for some reason I can let it slide because it's already an incredibly over the top movie. But it has come to my attention that I will try not to automatically put down musicals. I also seem to tolerate romantic comedies. I'm more and more like my dad every day....
