i am stumped! i know billy Elliot was a non musical film made INTO a theater musical. but not the other way around wasnt leagally blonde turned into a movie? I thought Legally Blonde was a movie before a play... Anyway, the only musical I can think of that was turned into a non-musical movie is La Cage Aux Folles, it is a musical play that was adapted into the movie The Bird Cage starring Robin Williams and Nathan Lane. The play is actually currently making a Broadway revival. It's an INCREDIBLY fun show! You should see it if you get the chance!
