Sondheim Songs from Films and Revues

Sondheim wrote one instrumental film score (Stavisky) and songs for several films (Reds, Dick Tracy, The Seven Percent Solution). In addition various performers and directors have put together revues of his songs: Side by Side by Sondheim (a straightforward cabaret presentation), Putting It Together (with vague characters and situations, but no book really), Marry Me a Little (which has a sorta kinda plot), and Sondheim on Sondheim (a biographical retrospective with video narration by Sondheim himself). As you put together your own list of top 25 songs, I though you might be interested in the songs included in these films and revues. Click HERE for a PDF list.
