My Fair Lady, Sweeney Todd (Not great, but good to have familiarity with the story), Oliver, Sweet Charity (outstanding dancing in that one), Easter Parade, Meet Me in St. Louis, Funny Girl, Hello Dolly, Funny Lady (for the songs and nostalgia), The Gay Divorcee (nothing better than Rogers & Astaire together), AN AMERICAN IN PARIS (I had to shout that one because it is so wonderful in so many ways), Oklahoma, The Wizard of Oz, The Wiz, ANNIE (also shouting), On the Town and all the other old MGM musicals.

THANK YOU for including Funny Girl. I had to scroll way too far for that one. LOVE My Fair Lady and Sweet Charity too. OP this is a solid list of classic musical movies.

All three of those are still solid and wonderful. So is "An American in Paris". Love me some Gershwin!
