Here's 1 person who hates this movie

Rating: 1/10 (1 April 2007)

I know this film is considered a classic among classics, but as a knowledgeable fan of 1920's music, I always thought this film was the most typically bad example of rewriting late 1920's/early 1930's history. Yes, the settings and costumes are more proper to the period than other films, but the arrangements of the music is strictly 1952.
Also, I must put in a plug; I have always thought that Gene Kelly was the most overrated Dancer/Actor of that era.
So, while I'm sure that my comments won't change anyone else's love for this movie, I, for one, have always thought it was another typical 1950's musical attempt at history with no grains of truth.
