One of the best ever!!

Rating: 10/10 (20 March 2012)

How can you not consider Singin In The Rain to NOT be one of the best musical film that has ever been made, or ever will be made?? The three lead actors were absolutely fantastic, and perfectly cast. Gene Kelly never danced better, Debbie Reynolds gave one of her greatest and probably most underrated performances, and Donald O'Connor was never slicker and more witty. The chemistry between the three leads is perfect, Gene and Debbie exude growing love. You feel a REAL friendship between Don Lockwood and Cosmo Brown. This chemistry is one of the reasons why this film works so well; can you see Howard Keel dancing in the rain as originally planned? Or someone else besides Debbie popping out of a cake. The music is the best and the dancing is SECOND TO NONE. The most famous obviously is Gene Kelly splashing around in puddles; and is the second most recognizable moment is screen history (first is Scarlett O'Hara's silhouette in front of Tara-with that classic score behind her.) I LOVE Debbie Reynolds, so I really enjoyed "All I Do Is Dream Of You." But my favorite number by far is "Good Mornin'" and this is why: it is the only number to include all three leads.
Can't get any better than this!
