For this genre I haven't really gone outside of the box. The ones I have selected would be common among other lists. Some of my favorite Musicals that are not here would be one of Danny Kaye's "The Court Jester" (1959) or "Hans Christen Andersen" (1952), Doris Day's "Calamity Jane" (1953), Astaire & Rogers "Top Hat" (1935), or even a MacDonald & Eddy "New Moon" (1940) or "Rose Marie" (1936). Not to mention any Eleanor Powell, Ester Williams, Jimmy Durante and Frank Sinatra film.
With so much to choose from I have stuck to the basics. The films listed below have tunes that sneak into my everyday life.
1. Singin' in the Rain (1952)
2. Brigadoon (1954)
3. My Fair Lady (1964)
4. Fiddler on the Roof (1971)
5. West Side Story (1961)
6. The Sound of Music (1965)
7. The Music Man (1962)
8. Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (1954)
9. Oklahoma (1955)
10. Mary Poppins (1964)
