Just about every major Broadway musical in the past has been turned into a Hollywood movie. The results were sometimes a Hit, other times a Miss, often an Also-Ran. This class looks at popular stage musicals and their cinema counterparts from the 1920s up until the 1970s. From Show Boat to Cabaret, these are musical adaptations with fascinating back-stories.

The class is part-lecture, part-watching scenes from classic movies.
