My enjoyment of the movie will straight up depend on how they do this one song, straight up one of the most emotive experiences I’ve had in a theatre and easily my fav from Wicked (which I don’t rate all that highly)

I can’t say Wicked is the best movie I’ve seen in theaters but it was an awesome experience. I went alone on a rainy night, the first Friday it was out. the theater was jam-packed with gaggles of gays, women dragging along their reluctant boyfriends and husbands, little girls (many dressed like Glinda!), and young women having a girl’s night.
There were middle school girls sitting behind me who were chattering away while we waited for the movie to start; when a Target ad came on, one of them said ’Has anyone noticed that Target just isn’t as fun anymore? Maybe this is just growing up.’
All of the women in the theater were audibly sobbing throughout the movie including myself. The middle school girls cried the most and one of the college girls sitting next to me said at the end ‘I can’t believe I cried watching WICKED that’s so embarrassing.’ The gays were screaming and jumping in the street outside afterwards about how good it was. It was… beautiful.

(The Substance is objectively the best movie I’ve seen in theaters; you can hear me talk about it here if you’re interested).

Specifically the Earth Angel musical number, when Silvestri’s score swells and George kisses Lorraine. Makes me cry without fail.

congrats if you can listen to this without thinking of Joan Cusack in School of Rock. What a tune.
