Singin' in the Rain (MGM,1952)

Simply the number one. Incomparable musical numbers (choreography by Gene Kelly), great direction by Kelly himself and Stanley Donen, nice story and script, good colors. The best.

"Moses Supposes".
Unmatchable Tap number performed by Gene Kelly and Donald O'Connor. Music by Roger Edens, lyrics by Betty Comden and Adolph Green.



"Good Morning".
Delightful dance number performed by Kelly, O'Connor and Debbie Reynolds. Music by Nacio Herb Brown and lyrics by Arthur Freed.



"Singin' in the Rain".
Sublime Tap solo by Gene Kelly. Music by Nacio Herb Brown and lyrics by Arthur Freed.



"Broadway Rhythm".
Human heritage! Unforgettable ballet in four styles (Jazz,Tap,modern,Ballet!!) danced by Gene, Cyd Charisse and chorus. Music by Nacio Herb Brown and lyrics by Arthur Freed again.
Gene Kelly is the most all-around artist ever: supreme dancer and choreographer, great actor and director, good singer. The only one of its kind in the history.


"Make 'em Laugh".
Funny musical number by Donald O'Connor.
