Oh my word yes. florenceerose, piploo, mabeldevine, missmaestro I feel that this should be a movie marathon at some point in time yasss?

hey!! so i had the idea of compiling a list of classical music movies, so i collected a few movies and i’ve linked each movie to a website where you can watch it for free. just make sure you have adblock working before you visit them! some movies i couldn’t find online so for those i’ll link only the IMDb page. enjoy!
