For the most part, however, musicals preach solid good sense. The trouble is the world's rulers often ignore it. The world might have avoided the recent financial crisis if bankers had only bought tickets to "Mary Poppins". The best musicals, happily, never go out of date. American politicians agonising over immigration reform should listen to "America" from "West Side Story" (1957), which captures both the allure of the American dream and the hardships that must be overcome to attain it. Sophisticates may sneer at musicals, but the world would be a better place if leaders heeded the wisdom of crowdpleasers. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini! Kembali
