Completing the section of top 5 of
my favorite musicals (see related links below) and since we’ve fled a long time ago the classical format
of a Hollywood musical you surely won’t mind today’s proposal!
so take it from the specialists
(source wiki):
« The Blues Brothers
is a 1980 American musical crime comedy film directed by John Landis. It stars John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd as "Joliet" Jake and Elwood Blues, characters developed from
"The Blues Brothers" musical sketch on
the NBC
variety series Saturday
Night Live. The film's screenplay
was written by Aykroyd and Landis.
It features musical numbers by rhythm and blues (R&B), soul, and blues
singers James Brown, Cab Calloway, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, and John Lee Hooker. The film is set in and around Chicago, Illinois,
where it was filmed. It features non-musical supporting performances by John Candy, Carrie Fisher, Charles
Napier, and Henry Gibson.
The story is a tale of redemption for paroled convict Jake and his brother Elwood, who take on "a
mission from God" to save from foreclosure the Catholic orphanage in which
they grew up. To do so, they must reunite their R&B band and organize a
performance to earn $5,000 needed to pay the orphanage's property tax bill. Along the way, they are targeted by a destructive "mystery
woman", Neo-Nazis, and a country and western band—all while being relentlessly pursued by the police.
On location in Chicago, Belushi's partying and drug
use caused lengthy and costly delays that, along with the destructive car
chases depicted onscreen, made the final film one of the most expensive
comedies ever produced…»
