While I liked both Moulin Rouge and Chicago, I thought Moulin's inclusion of 80's hit song cliches was campy and, well, cliche. In the end, it had plenty of spark and was great, though.

I think the Silver Age of the movie musicals goes back a bit further... Madonna was amazing as Eva Peron, and Tantonio Tanteras can sing wonderfully. I haven't seen the remake of Les Mis, but I assume it's a musical.

Go see Down With Love to see Obi-wan and Renee Zellweiger singing together -- in a song or two. It's NOT a musical, though.
