It transcends its audience. I have never watched this film end to end before. Only bits and pieces. However, the songs of this first are part of everyday. At least have of them I knew without ever seeing them on screen. That says something.
Shoulda, Woulda, Coulda:
Other than Doctor Zhivago, who could have also done it, the Academy got it right.
