Singin' In the Rain

DateTuesday, September 1, 2009 at 12:00PM


Release Year: 1952
Review: Recognized as one of the best classic musicals, 'Singin' in the Rain' had always been at the top of my 'to watch' list. I'm not a fan of musicals in general, so I went into this film a bit wary. To my surprise the film holds up remarkably well. The film is about the transition from silent films to 'talkies' and makes for a compelling commentary on that tumultuous era in cinema. Some of the musical numbers did drag a bit, but for the most part were entertaining. This is a great film. A true classic, and one of the best films about Hollywood ever made.
Rating: 4/5
