WATCH OUT, GEORGE, HE'S GOT A SCREWDRIVER!
as i was trawling through old threads i rediscovered me old 'bugsy malone' one, and there seemed to be a fair few musical fans out there.
so let's have a pointless poll so we all end up humming show tunes at work today
*'bugsy malone' - kiddie gangsters, splurge guns, pedal car chases, jodie f-f-foster and superbly diverse score from paul williams
*'west side story' - romeo and juliet in the noo yoik hood, words by sondheim, music by bernstein... "maarr-ee-ahhhh"
*'sound of music' - julie andrews battles those pesky nazis in the alps, with nuns, brats and a stern daddy figure
*'oliver!' - lionel bart turns dickens into a rollicking roustabout, with lovable scamps all over the shop
*'rocky horror picture show' - the fella from the 'crystal maze', meatloaf, susan sarandon... hubba hubba! and it's all about sex! probably!
*'the wall' - gerald scarfe's scary pictures of jack-booted nazi hammers, and it's all about playing truant or, um, something, man...
*'grease' - travolta and newton-john get it on in fifties middle america, and we still love it... stockard channing always got my vote, bad girls 4 ever
*'south park: bigger longer and uncut' - badly animated children sing rude words: it doesn't get much better
*'moulin rouge' - doomed courtesan nicole kidman and penniless writer ewan macgregor croon anachronistically at each other in this visually overloaded take on bohemian paris
*other - well come on, tell us the worst...
...and yes, the options are biased to ones i quite like, so not many from the golden studio days, but that doesn't mean you can't nominate them...

OK, not for the music but for Yul Brynner and all the lovely kids (even though it is banned in Thailand)
- everyone wants one!
