Week 23

Music plot or musical

Last week we watched a movie connected to a tv show, the week before it was a movie connected to a movie. This week, watch a movie connected to music

The obvious idea for this week is to watch a musical, or a music biopic movie. You could also watch a movie that stars a musician, or a movie that shares a title with a song or artist. Finally, as suggested by Dave Rackliff, you could watch a movie that your favourite band has sung about, or referenced in a song, or provided a song for the soundtrack.

Can you come up with any interesting connections between music and movies?
