Musicals

Musicals are movies that mainly concentrate on music considering everyone sings for their dialogue. They can be sad or they can be happy depending on what type of mood they create through their song. For example, Les Miserables is a musical about the French Revolution that has a tone to it that makes it dreary and sad. When the characters sing, it’s about their emotions that they are feeling and about what has happened to them in the past. The reason why that musical has such a powerful effect on the audience is because of the songs that are sung by the characters. A lot of the actors had to practice for many of months to learn how to sing and cry at the same time so that they can get the message of their song out to the audience. So if you want to cry or you are just feeling sad, I would recommend seeing Les Miserables and listening to the music. Another example is Mama Mia, a musical about a mom and daughter living in Greece and having the daughter inviting her potential fathers to her wedding. This musical has a silly but still entertaining soundtrack that can make anyone laugh and happy. The songs really add to this silly plot and the characters. They are also catchy and can really bring joy to anyone listening to the soundtrack. Lastly, Bollywood is genre of Indian film that has crazy plot lines and musical numbers. If you have never seen a Bollywood film, I highly recommend it. Their music that they play can bring a smile on anyone’s face. Their musical numbers always come out of nowhere without you expecting it which adds to the mystery that is Bollywood.

If you are looking for music that makes you want to cry or dance, I would suggest watching a few musicals. They can be beneficial to your emotions and can always bring some type of joy to anyone watching. Trust me!
