From The King and I to The Slipper \u0026amp; the Rose, many of arguably the greatest musical films ever made are included. The musical film was a natural .development of the stage musical after the emergence of sound film technology. Typically, the biggest difference between stage and film musicals is the use of lavish background sets and locations that would be impratical in a theatre. Musical films characteristically contain elements reminiscent of theatre; performers often treat their song and dance numbers as if there is a live audience watching.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 206\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.69 x 10 x 7 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 26, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42109351002247,"sku":"9781684182268","price":69.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/702c3ffedb7a3f96f1ae0d8a4de9bd42.webp?v=1732473996","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/great-musical-films-hardcover","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
