I want to find a movie to rent, but I don't know the title.
The movie is a musical, an opera rock from the 80's, full of nice pop music. I also don't remember the plot exactly, but there was a hot chick in a red dress, which was in love with another singer. There was also a gang and a bad boy keeping them apart.
I remember that the movie starts with a group of singers, singing "My Girl" or something else from the Temptations.
Any ideas?

It's either Grease or the video for Beat It.

No. Is not like Grease. It has a dark tone.

You sure it was from the 80's and not the 60's?
West Side Story

Sounds like the plot you are describing.
Plus a few ladies in red dresses

Thanks, but no.
To be clear, is not a musical where the actors start singing in the middle of a conversation. As far as I remember, the music is performed on stage, since the characters were trying to make a living singing.

I am starting to think that maybe the movie is from early 90's.

I wouldn't call that a musical. Did it have Demi Moore in it?

Nope. The actress was not a high-profile one. She was a brunet btw.
