In the history of the Academy Awards, only 10 musicals have ever won the top prize of Best Picture, and only one was released post-1968. That might be enough to signify that the musical genre was at its peak a decent number of decades ago. But, then again, other musicals have proven successful at the Oscars, including Cabaret, which won eight Oscars (but lost Best Picture to The Godfather), and La La Land, which won several Oscars and, for a few brief moments, seemed like it had won Best Picture (Moonlight was the actual winner).
