Movie musicals are among the most quintessentially American art forms, often celebrating mobility, self-expression and the pursuit of one's dreams. But like America itself, the Hollywood musical draws from many distinct ethnic traditions. In this illuminating new study, Desirée J. Garcia examines the lesser-known folk musicals from early African American, Yiddish and Mexican filmmakers, revealing how these were essential ingredients in the melting pot of the Hollywood musical.
