Little Shop of Horrors.

...and though I make a point of protesting every time my girlfriend wants to watch it...Moulin Rouge. She left her DVD at my house once and I think I watched it like ten times in two days.

I think that one of the most underrated and well made movie musicals is "Hair". I also like a few others mentioned here. I'm surprised that the movie version of "The Wiz" would make it on anyone's favorite list. IMO, that move, along with "A Chorus Line" are two of the worst movie musicals ever made. To each his own.

Pab! of course, I love the movie of Hair. I think it actually improved on the show. Plus the Twyla Tharp choreography, a great cast and chorus. I think I need to put it on as soon as I get home.

CHICAGO. No question. I don't remember the last time a movie blew me out of the water the way Chicago did.

Cabaret--soooo amazing--and Moulin Rouge

Sidenote: I read(Boston Globe?) that Brokeback's stars Heath and Jake first met when they both lost the role of Christian in Moulin Rouge to Ewan McGregor.
