I'm Persweded

Advantages: Mesmerising Lyrics, Catchy tunes and realms of fans
Disadvantages: None

≈♫♪≈♪≈♫♪≈ ABBA GOLD ≈♫♪≈♪≈♫♪≈ During the 70’s ABBA rapidly became very popular. Once never heard of, they emerged from Sweden and started taking over the world. ABBA had a habit of coming out with songs that had the kind of melodies that people find very hard to get out of their head. They also used to wear some wacky clothes on stage, which ...
...storm. My first memories of ABBA were those of waking to hear my Mum downstairs with an LP on. At the time I didn’t know that she was listening to ABBA, nor was I old enough to understand any of the words that they were singing, but the tunes stuck in my head from an early age and once I was old enough to understand I soon became one of ABBA’s next generation fans. Of course, if it was not for the Eurovision song contest ABBA may not have made ...

Moulin rouge is a musical admirers dream

Advantages: Great chemistry between main characters ,feel good film .
Disadvantages: The singing throughout the film can get a bit tiresome

In my opinion you must see the film if you like musicals, otherwise you might find the singing a bit off putting .At times the siniging can seem a bit over the top but in general this is what makes the film interesting.It is worth watching just to see the on screen chemistry between Ewan Mcgregor and Nicole Kidman they are a great pairing and seem to have good on screen presence allowing you to follow the romantic tale which is played out . The ...

I'll watch this some more!

Advantages: great family film
Disadvantages: none

...remember loving the musical film Oliver! as a child and singing and dancing along to so many of the wonderful songs that accompanied the story. I was also lucky to see the West End production many years ago, long before Andrew Lloyd Webber took an interest with his search for a Nancy and an Oliver in the great series ‘I’d do Anything’. My daughters loved watching the TV shows and started picking up the words to some of the songs. Therefore when I ...
...in our big armchair watching Oliver! Oliver! (made in 1968)is based on the classic novel of Oliver Twist that was written by Charles Dickens. It tells the story of a poor workhouse boy who had the audacity to ask for more of the disgusting gruel that was served to all the boys daily while the workhouse governors were fed roast dinners. As a consequence Oliver is sold to the local undertaker where he is teased about his dead mother. Feeling desperate, ...
