In recent years, musicals have made a spectacular comeback on the big screen, transforming beloved stage productions into visually captivating films. With the release of the brand-new Wicked<\/em><\/a>\u00a0movie, we’re diving into 10 of the best musical-to-movie adaptations that have thrilled fans, won critical acclaim, and set new standards for musical films in the 21st century.<\/h6>\n

West Side Story (2021)<\/a>, Leonard Bernstein<\/h2>\n

There are few more iconic musicals than\u00a0Leonard Bernstein<\/a>‘s\u00a0West Side Story<\/em>, which first hit Broadway in 1957 before being turned into a movie four years later. Some 60 years on, legendary director Steven Spielberg brought\u00a0West Side Story<\/em>\u00a0back to the big screen with the film’s iconic score re-orchestrated by David Newman and conducted by Gustavo Dudamel. Whilst matching the original’s charm and cultural impact was never going to be an easy task, Spielberg does a great job of honoring its legacy while bringing a fresh and culturally respectful take on a classic story, and his visual storytelling enhances each musical number, from the vibrant street rendition of\u00a0“America”<\/a>\u00a0to Tony and Maria’s tender fire escape duet.<\/p>\n
