520    "Leading film historian Jeanine Basinger reveals, with her
       trademark wit and zest, the whole story of the Hollywood 
       musical in the most telling, most incisive, most detailed,
       most gorgeously illustrated book of her long and 
       remarkable career"--Jacket. 
520    From Fred Astaire to La La Land, Basinger examines a 
       dazzling array of stars, strategies, talents, and 
       innovations in the history of musical cinema. Whether 
       analyzing a classic Gene Kelly routine, relishing a Nelson
       -Jeanette operetta, or touting a dynamic hip hop number 
       she provides a guide to the many ways that song and dance 
       have been seen-- and heard-- on film. She includes 
       extensive portraits of the singers and dancers, and 
       focuses on many beloved, iconic films as well as unduly 
       obscure gems. -- adapted from jacket
