I never understood the “Shipoopi” song in the musical “The Music Man”. Apparently, I’m not supposed to. In fact, this writer has decided to use the word as her term for a “painfully superfluous musical number”. She also names a few cliche gems from “”Ebert’s Little Movie Glossary”, such as “Fruit Cart!” which you’ve probably seen in many movie chase scenes. It’s similar to “pane of glass being carried across the street” for car chase scenes.
