Why does Cowboy Carter felt like a soundtrack to a Musical film?

Whenever I listen to Cowboy Carter, it feels like I'm listening to a soundtrack to a musical film. The album has that film-like essence. Espcially songs like "II MOST WANTED", 'JOLENE", 'AMEN" and 'AMERICAN REQUIIEM" feels so theatrical. If Cowboy Carter was a muscial film, OH it would be amazing.
