Sound of Music is my all time favorite musical too, I really like the Wizard of Oz too, is that a musical? Yes, I think maybe it is, that would run a close second. I own them both so I can watch them at any time, also Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and Willy Wonka and the CHocolate Factory. Yes, I am 42, LOL :)

Well, Wizard of Oz is a musical of sorts too. Just one most people never consider as one.

I like Sound of Music too. We travel to Salzburg pretty regularly where it was filmed. My favorite stage musical is Les Miserables.

I would Love to be able to travel to Salzburg someday. And seeing Les Miserables must be a nice one to see.

I've watched Show Boat over and over. I still get chills up my spine when the boatman sings "Old Man River". Howard Keel is always wonderful in musicals. Ava Gardner is superb, too.

I think as film musical it is Moulin Rouge, if you can call that a film musical. Generally, I think musicals written for the stage loos some of their magic when put on film (Rent, the Producers, just two examples).

Oh goodness -- there are so many! I guess i I had to pick a favorite, it would probably be Evita. I'm no fan of Madonna, but she was perfect for the part of Eva Peron. Just rented the new version of Oklahoma last week though, with Hugh Jackman playing Curly. That's still one of my faves too!

My favorite musiocal that has been adfapted to a movie is Cabaret. It is brilliant, and I am always delighted when it comes on. I guess the Rocky Horror Picture Show would be my second favorite.

I think that Moulin Rouge is probably the "musical" that I watch the most. As a kid, I used to watch a whole lot more, since my mom is a big fan of musicals. So I've seen a lot of the older musicals, like Oklahoma and The Music Man and Sound of Music. I don't know what I would pick for the best of the older ones. It's a tough decision!

My favourite musical film would have to be phantom of the opera - i just love the soundtrack and get the songs stuck in my head for days! When i was a kid i used to love sound of music and west side story - seen them loads of times, but i got a bit sick of them. Starting to like them again now.

After reading the movies below I realize that I love all of those old musical that I watched with my parents, but if I had to choose one I would have to agree that Sound of Music is my favorite. That was the one that popped in my head when I read the question, so it must be.
