Lyric film in Egyptian cinema

We do not have only one type of musical cinema in Egypt throughout this long period of time. Cinema that spoke in order to sing made many types of films, its existence linked to certain names and show stars.
Composition and musical comedy remained in a state of ups and downs during the times in which Muhammad Abdel Wahhab, Umm Kulthum, Farid al-Atrash, and Laila Murad were present, then Muhammad Fawzi, Naima Akef, Shadia, and Sabah. In the fifties, Abdel Halim Hafez emerged, and each name had its own characteristics in this world: the musical film, the show film, and the musical comedy film. Then the musical film moved noticeably slowly in the following decades and returned in the current century to flourish again.
In this book, there is a solid follow-up of the path of all these types of cinema, so let us learn about them.
