What movie music scene would win a Eurovision Song Contest?

If after Eurovision you were left with the desire to continue watching musical performances, the cinema offers a variety as unusual as that of the European festival. Some performances are carried out with drama and others with humor, but in all of them the magic of music emerges along with a wonderful staging. We closed the televoting and began to count by Eurovision points which film scene would win the festival.Cuban Pete- “La Máscara” (1 Point) “La Máscara” (New line cinema) Both at a festival such as the Eurovision Song Contest and at the cinema, scenes with geek performances full of humor cannot not appear. The mask was the character with which Jim Carrey was able to exploit all his contained energy through somewhat cartoon effects and powers. Impossible to forget how the protagonist distracts the police so that they do not shoot him and how everyone begins to sing possessed of the rhythm with him. We give it a point for the charisma, but if the kid didn’t win the festival, Carrey doesn’t deserve it either. Magic Dance- “Inside the labyrinth” (2 points) “Inside the labyrinth” (TriStar Pictures) David Bowie in a wig and singing surrounded by Jim Henson dolls, what could go wrong? Exactly nothing. The singer and sometimes actor wastes all his talent singing in chorus with his goblin minions, while drawing up his evil plans so that Jennifer Connelly cannot escape from his labyrinth. Evil, but with a lot of rhythm. He gets 2 points, but because the 80’s are a bit old-fashioned.Please Mr. Jailer- “Cry Baby” (3 points) “Cry Baby” (Universal Pictures) You remember the good old days when Johnny Deep didn’t have to change always their physical appearance to act.This musical film directed by John Waters acts as a parody of musical tapes like Grease. His scene in prison is a great number, with an original choreography and a full Deep. In 1990 it did not obtain a great recognition but today it is considered a cult work and for that alone it takes 3 points.Can´t Take My eyes off you- “10 reasons to hate you” (4 points) «10 reasons to hate you» (Touchstone pictures) Adapting to Shakespeare and scoring a good musical number is only possible if it comes from the hand of Heath Ledger, who years later would teach his hip movements in Destiny of a Knight. Eurovision loves romanticism, so Can’t Take My eyes off you deserves 4 points. A step you can’t take back- Begin again (5 points) «Begin again» (Apatow productions) A song in a seedy bar. The discovery of a star. Who doesn’t like to find talent in the most unsuspected nooks and crannies? Mark Ruffalo was resurrected from his drunkenness when listening to this song by Keira Knigthley, while he imagined the song with all the piano and drums arrangements accompanying the young woman’s guitar. This girl is the surprise of the contest and of the film and therefore, she takes the 5 points. Get ready- “The Lion King” (6 points) “The Lion King” (Disney) What a way to harangue the troops Scar has, with a song makes you an army and at the same time tells you its evil plan. Sometimes a good song should have a message and this one does (even if the result is one of the most traumatic deaths in animated cinema). Scar and his hyenas take all 6 points.Blue Velvet- “Blue Velvet” (7 points) “Blue Velvet” (De Laurentis Entertainment group) Sometimes the festival demands a bit of nostalgia.This song performed by Isabela Rosselini has a dreamlike point capable of mesmerizing any audience. The song is repeated several times in history but nothing is the same anymore. Blue Velvet transmits what it takes to get 7 points. Always look on the bright side of life- “Brian’s Life” (8 points) “Brian’s Life” (Handmade Films) A controversial performance like every year could not be missed. The crucifixion does not seem so bad if “you always see the sunny side of life.” If there is something we ask of a festival song, it is that it have a rhythm. Try not to whistle its rhythm repeatedly after listening to it. Brian and his crucified friends score 8 points. Super Trouper- “Mamma Mia!” (9 points) “Mamma mia” (Universal Pictures) If ABBA has already won the festival, but well, we let it be because Meryl Streep must be forgiven for everything. Is there something that this colossal actress does not do well? You will spend the day singing it as you hear it just once. The musical located in Greece takes 9 points. America- “West Side Story” (10 points) «West Side Story» (MGM) Social criticism is also very well seen in Eurovision, so much so that the Puerto Ricans of West Side Story take 10 punches because they sing and dance about fulfilling the American dream and they criticize the living conditions they have in the country. A respite full of dance and ironic lyrics between so many love songs by its two protagonists. Another Day of Sun- “La la Land” (12 points) «La la land» (Summit entertainment) La la land is surely one of the best-shot musicals of all time. All his songs make up an inexhaustible original soundtrack. Its beginning is already on another level, unbeatable choreography in a traffic jam through an exemplary staging.The best of the presentations deserves to win this filmic Eurovision Song Contest (No one sang at Moonlight, right?
