Portfolio Project Research -Romance

Along with my reaserch of the mucial genre, I decided to research the romance genre as that usually plays a big role in the plot of musical films. While the tone of the romance genre can vary we feel it is a good fit with the musical. Romance film can be defined as a genre wherein the plot revolves around the love between two protagonists. The story usually can have themes with love at first sight or sacrifical love. We are not sure of what our plot will be exactly, but this research can definately help us with our creation.

Some examples of musical romance films are:

Mama Mia (2008): A musical romantic comedy film directed by Phyllida Lloyd and written by Catherine Johnson. Based on the 1999 musical "Mama Mia!" This film involves a romantic plot that follows a young bride-to-be who invites three men to her upcoming wedding, each one with the possibility of being her father. 

Moulin Rouge (2001):  This film is a story of a young English poet/writer, Christian, who falls in love with the star of the Moulin Rouge, cabaret actress and courtesan Satine. In this movies they would show their romance through their music, if a feeling was intense, then they sing it. 

Grease (1978): Is a film where you can experience the realtionships of teenagers in highschool through the time era of the 1950s. This is the singing, romantic, dance world of Grease. The film depicts the lives of greaser Danny Zuko and Australian transfer student Sandy Olsson who develop an attraction for each other.
