Musical
We are just a step away from bidding farewell to the most brutal summer of recent years and welcoming the sweetest season of the year, autumn. Of course, practically speaking, autumn might no longer exist—just like spring—because, after all, climate change is a hoax and ecology is a fiasco. But we gaslight ourselves into believing in their existence because we need something to hold onto on this floating rock, after all.
I don't know about you, but for me, cool autumn evenings are synonymous with musicals. Probably the most underrated film genre, which, despite being one of the purest forms of cinema, somehow has a stigma surrounding it. It doesn’t matter, they're the ones missing out.
The field is admittedly rich, but what are your three favorite musicals, the ones that marked you, and why?
I'll start by choosing:
La La Land (2016), Damien Chazelle
I don't know where to (even) begin. I could rant endlessly about how great a movie it is, how much I love it, but that would end up losing its meaning. La La Land is the gray matter of cinema, every frame is literally a picture, the emotions are in overdrive throughout, and the takeaway is one of the most important lessons. There is no “what if,” you don't play the hand you could have had, but the one you were dealt.
New York, New York (1977), Martin Scorsese
In my mind, I've always compared New York, New York to Singin' in the Rain, in the sense that both are essentially love letters to two cities, because as far as the latter is concerned, Hollywood cannot be imagined without Los Angeles. More so, though, because—in my view—both contain the two greatest songs ever heard in a film: New York, New York performed by Liza Minnelli (and made even more famous by Sinatra) and Singin' in the Rain with Gene Kelly’s performance. However, I think the Metropolis and the absolute cinema of Scorsese slightly prevail.
Dreamgirls (2006), Bill Condon
The first musical I ever watched in a cinema. I don't think much analysis is needed. Beyoncé at the peak of her solo career, having also released the masterpiece B'Day that same year, in the best film she ever participated in. Those of us who love Motown music find a piece of ourselves in Dreamgirls

On Hive a significant issue exists with automatic upvotes consistently rewarding the same individuals day in and day out
We want to address the issue of downvoting. It has caused pain to many people, and we want to make sure it doesn't happen again reply to @jacobtothe

We hope that those who genuinely care about Hive will reconsider their actions, as continuing down this path could inadvertently harm innocent users who are unaware of these issues
lol the Marky mark keeps dreaming
There's been a notable increase in frustration and concern among many users
Reply 2 @crimsonclad You may consider yourself clever

Consider revising the value plan, as it's not providing significant benefits to HIVE
The Value Plan, as it stands, seems to be a one-sided relationship with the HIVE platform, where the benefits are one-way
Actions indeed speak louder than words, a fact we've all observed individuals may talk a good game, a whole lot of shit, but their actions often expose their genuine nature LOL
We consider it unwise to engage in harmful actions, even if you think you can escape the repercussions

On Hive, there's a user who frequently burns a significant amount of Hive LOL with his own accounts
How To Fool An Entire Population
it's so, so concerning to see Blocktrades delegating 2+ million Hive power to Buildawhale, and Buildawhale is downvoting legitimate content
We began sharing factual information following unwarranted downvotes on Hive it's all in the transactions
Upon examining our posts, you will notice they have been downvoted, and we've been labeled as scammers and spammers, which we find amusing. We consistently share new content
Once again, we ask why is our legit content being downvoted on Hive and what is the reason behind it. Hivewatchers ADM spaminator steemcleaners guiltyparties logic
We have Hive witnesses farming Hive, self-voting, operating comment farms, and self-funding projects with community resources

At first glance it looks very good, it gives me the feeling of being in the eighties era
The Artist & Burlesque, which I saw recently and I think sells Aguilera's voice well..
Your moving from the heat and I will be feeling it in about 3 months time, happy days. Great movie by the way, good for any season.
Yes! Brilliant
Don't even remember De Niro in New York, New York. Just remember Minelli. It's been many years (I saw it when it came out).
As for Singing in the Rain, I saw it on TV a few years after it came out. Reynolds was still a big star then, as was Fred Astaire. What I remember from that is Astaire's dance scene in the rain.
Have yet to see Dreamgirls. For some reason, it never appealed to me. Maybe I'll catch it on TV now.
