Continuing my personal ranking of the 25 movie musicals deemed essential by the American Film Institute…
#4. The Sound of Music – 1965
(#4 on the AFI list)
My biggest blind spot going into this project. I wrote about my newfound love for The Sound of Music when I kicked off this series back in June.
#3. Meet Me in St. Louis – 1945
(#10 on the AFI list)
My biggest surprise. I knew next to nothing about this beautiful film before watching it, except that it featured one of my all-time favorite songs, ‘Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.’ Now it’s one of my favorite musicals.
