facts about actors and actresses behind scenes, how that affected movie

Rating: 9/10 (6 September 2004)

It's raining outside. Every time it rains, i start singing "with a happy refrain". Rain takes on a whole new meaning after you have seen this unique and wonderful movie. Whenever I see someone walking down the street in an umbrella, I can't help but envision Gene Kelly, Debbie Reynolds, and Donald O'Connor singing and dancing together. My favorite song from the musical is "Good Morning". It is hard to believe that Debbie Reynolds couldn't dance before this movie. I guess that you can't help but dance well when you are taught by someone as good as Fred Astaire. This movie became even more magical to me after I learned about the characters. Debbie Reynolds was only nineteen during the filming of this movie, Gene Kelly was somewhat of a tyrant, and Jean Hagen dubbed herself. If you can see this musical and not like it, then you should examine yourself as a human being. I would have to say that this is one of the greatest musicals of all time.
