GET A JOB
STAY AWAY FROM HERCatchy tunes, and Ron Howard was such a little cutie. I just sort of can't condone this relationship even if he helped her adorable ginger brother with his lisp.
Also this was surprisingly long. CATCHY TUNES though.
The Music Man
The story of that man and his 76 trombones, and the wonderful, wonderful tune he played on every heart in town!

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A buoyant musical celebration of small-town charm and genuine human connection, where a smooth-talking con artist finds himself genuinely transformed by the people he initially set out to deceive. The film is pure theatrical joy, lavish production numbers, winning performances, and an infectious belief in the power of music and sincerity.
