Good luck. Hope it's still there when you get to the theater. Moviepass movies have an uncanny way of being de=listed when you get close to the theater.

It's a free "bonus" film, so I think chances are greater that it will be available. I so want to see this, but am teaching both nights it's screening.

This may have been noticed already, but Shall We Dance(sung by Marni Nixon?) was used to accompany robots smashing each other and everything in sight. As Huck Finn might have said, it gives me the fantods; But the people who now own the rights to the R&H scores can rent the songs as they pleases. C'est la vie

Nothing new.

I remember that as a kid, "Oklahoma" was used in a commercial, though I can't remember for what.

There was a hair color commercial that used the jingle "I'm gonna wash that gray right outta my hair."

Volvo and Mastercard, among others, have used "My Favorite Things."

But, those are fairly tame. How about Vanish toilet bowl cleaner using the jingle "I've got you under my rim" or a famous Sondheim opener becoming "Stove Top Tonight?" Or, Betty Crocker using "Bake Someone Happy?" (Yup, they're all real and on Youtube to boot...)

Have you seen GREEN BOOK yet? One of the trio's performances is of the song "Happy Talk" from SOUTH PACIFIC. It really is done well and adds to the atmosphere of the story telling.
