I agree with susan. Seven Brides for Seven Brothers has always been a favorite of mine and always will be. I think it's #3 on my list.

As far as the Rogers and Hammerstein musicals, I liked The Sound of Music and Oklahoma! better than South Pacific.

Oh that reminds me....has anyone seen R&H's version of Cinderella (1965)? I can remember seeing it as a little girl (even before Disney's version) and Lesley Ann Warren was always my vision of how Cinderella looked. She was so sweet and beautiful. I wanted that dress.



I'm a big fan of Judy Garland also.

My favorites are...

The Wizard of Oz(1939)
Meet Me in St. Louis (1944)
The Harvey Girls (1946)
Easter Parade (1948)
For Me and My Gal (1942)
In the Good Old Summertime (1949)
The Pirate (1948)
Ziegfeld Girl (1941)
Ziegfeld Follies (1946) (Madam Cremeliton number)

annie, i loved r & h's cinderella...the original with lesley ann warren was always a favorite of mine...

i was going to include it along with peter pan (mary martin) and princess and the pea with carol burnett...

another judy garland movie....in the good old summertime..

West Side Story

I forget the other one but it had the song "...fringe on the top!" Is it Oklahoma? Or South something?

surrey with the fringe on top is from oklahoma...where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain...

Some of my favourites:

Oklahoma (with Hugh Jackman)
West Side Story
Rocky Horror Picture Show
Little Shop of Horrors
Jesus Christ Superstar
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat
Wizard of Oz
Hair
There was also a movie called 'The Ritz' I saw many years ago.

I'm looking forward to seeing Phantom of the Opera.

Oh good! Thanks Susan...I'm glad to hear someone else has seen and liked R&H's Cinderella.

The Princess and the Pea with Carol Burnett....I loved that! I've seen some of the others on video/dvd...but not this one. I remember this this on TV and laughing at Carol Burnett climbing up all of those matresses.

In the Good Old Summertime. I think this is one of her movies that doesn't get as much recognition as the others. I've always liked it.

Thanks susan.

thanks annie...they only showed the princess and the pea once on tv so many years ago....i've never seen it again since... but i never forgot it...glad someone else remembers it..

r&h's cinderella has been out on dvd for a while now...i picked up a copy after finally taping it from tv...

well with out a dought the best musical of all time has got to be the
LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS

West Side Story, plain and simple.

The best musical ever made, IMHO. I've seen it on broadway and both theatrical adaptions. I'm not a big fan of the genre, but this one has always done it for me

I love the Phantom of the Opera..... Especially when Andrea Bocelli sings as the phantom, he's awesome.... ya'll should check him out, he has anew album "Andrea".....
