When a struggling artist meets one of the muses of Greek mythology, they decide to build a roller disco nightclub together.
The 1980 musical classic starring Olivia Newton-John, Michael Beck and Gene Kelly features a soundtrack by the Electric Light Orchestra.
‘How does Xanadu qualify as the greatest movie musical? Simple: it offers nothing but pure wall-to-wall fun and nonsense to keep a smile on one’s face from the opening credits (which cleverly spoof the logo of Universal Pictures) through the end of the picture.’ – Film Threat
