Musical Monday: Sweeney Todd - A Little Priest (#32).

[Every Monday, I'm going to be counting down my 52 favorite musical numbers from musical movies and TV shows. I might not like the full movie/show, but the number makes the list for various reasons: 1) I have to like the song, 2) the visual of how the number is performed is most likely unique or fun, 3) both song and visual mixes well to create an exciting or powerful number. So let's get to the next on the list.]

I didn't exactly love Sweeney Todd, and it takes a while for the movie to really pick up. But it's about this point in the movie I started liking it. The second I realize the direction the story is going and what this song is going to be about (pretty quickly), I couldn't help but laugh. The whole thing is morbid, punny, and hilarious. It's my favorite song in the movie--A Little Priest.
