“Step in Time” absolutely rules. You loving that is definitely in line with your “musicals are really dance movies” viewpoint, as that one is a real ensemble dancing visual treat.

How is that possible though, haha.

Per Wikipedia: “”Step in Time” appears in the 2004 Mary Poppins stage musical, with a similar purpose. The main difference, however, is that Bert walks upside down on the proscenium arch.” What.

On the other hand, I’m not sure I don’t prefer BEDKNOBS AND BROOMSTICKS, even so: all the fun of MARY POPPINS and they fight Nazis!
