A musical film belongs to a film genre that’ features songs, sung by the actors, interwoven into the narrative. The songs are usually used to advance the plot or develop the film’s characters. A sub-genre of the musical is the musical comedy, which includes a strong element of humour as well as the usual music, dancing and storyline.
The musical is responsible for the transition from silent film to sound film in the development of the mo- ti0n picture. The popularity of movies grew rapidly during the golden days of the silent film era, but the concept of "talking pictures" was considered a risky investment by the msjor Hollywood studies, until the Warner Bros. studio took the leap and produced "The Jazz Singer", starring Al Jolson. Jolson’s song "Msmmy" in the picture forever changed the medium of film, and it jolted Hollywood into the era of sound. As Hollywood adapted to sound films, musicals were an important part of Hollywood’ s movie output, ranking alongside action movies (Westerns), dramas, and comedies.
Musical stars such as Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers were among the most popular and highly respected personalities in Hollywood. Many dramatic actors gladly participated in musicals as a way to break away from their typical typecast roles. For instance, James Cagney had originally risen to fame on the stage as a singer and dancer, and he was highly, talented; but his repeated casting in "tough guy" roles and gangster movies gave him few chances. to display these talents. Cagney’s Oscar-winning role in "Yankee Doodle Dandy" allowed him tosing and dance, and he considered it to be one of his finest moments.
Many comedies, (and a few dramas) included their own musical numbers. The Marx Brothers’ movies included a musical number, in nearly every film, allowing the Marx Brothers themselves to. highlight their own musical talents.
The musical in film was a natural development from the stage musical. Typically the biggest difference between the movie musical and the musical theater is the use of lavish background scenery which would be impractical in a theater. Many musical films, e.g. "Oklahoma!’ and "The Sound of Music", are straightforward adaptations or restaging of successful stage productions. Others, e.g. "Moulin Rouge!", were specifically written for the screen, and some, such as "Singin’ in the Rain’, have made a revere transition from their o- riginal screen version to a successful stage format at a much later date.
The trend is modem film-malting is not to make a "musical" as such, but to use a lot of background music by popular rock or pop bands in the hopes of selling the soundtrack album to falls. There are exceptions to this rule, and films about actors, dancers or singers have been made as successful modem-style musicals, with the music as, an intrinsic part of the storyline. The other exception to the rule is children’s animated movies. These almost always include traditional musical numbers, and some of them, such as Beauty and the Beast, have later become full live stage productions. [br] A musical film______.
