Musical Movies That Made Us Sing
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Adaptation, Classics, Family, Music, Musicals,
The High School Musical 3 trailer is out, Disney’s Camp Rock enjoyed a successful debut, and musical movies are becoming Hollywood mainstream again. But this is by no means a new or cutting-edge movie genre.
The Hollywood musical celebrated its heyday in the 1960s, when all the biggest stars were singing and dancing as well as acting. But as years passed, they began to fall by the wayside, cropping up irregularly in-between standard comedies and dramas. New projects, like the remake of My Fair Lady that I’ve already summarily rejected, are in the till…and there’s no doubt more new musical movies to come.

Deborah Kerr: An Actress to Remember
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Classics, Obituaries,
Best known for her roles in 1957’s An Affair to Remember (opposite Cary Grant) and 1953’s From Here to Eternity (opposite the one and only Burt Lancaster in the famous beach scene), legendary actress Deborah Kerr has passed away at age 86. Kerr won the Golden Globe and received an Academy Award nomination during her lengthy Hollywood career, which included more than forty films.
Born in Scotland, Kerr blazed on the screen with her red hair and powerful voice. It was that same voice which helped Kerr land the role of a lifetime – Anna in The King and I. She starred opposite Yul Brenner, the sexiest bald man in the history of Hollywood (you wish, Telly Savales), making film history in the musical with classic songs like ‘Getting to Know You’. Kerr became a Bond girl at age 46 in the film Casino Royale.
