I think we are bound to disagree if you don't like Singin' in the Rain - I like something that is a little less serious when it comes to my movies ;-)<br /><br />Dad - On the Town is next!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17972023777290870656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797274960268068391.post-75363986718941951722011-03-04T18:05:02.839-05:002011-03-04T18:05:02.839-05:00I have never watched this movie but have seen the ...I have never watched this movie but have seen the Kelly/Jerry dance scene.<br /><br />Have you seen <i>On the Town</i>? I enjoy that one but it's no <i>Singin' in the Rain</i>. There's a reason why it's a classic.Scott Thomas Photographyhttp://stphoto.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797274960268068391.post-68160333786640125062011-03-04T17:48:45.600-05:002011-03-04T17:48:45.600-05:00Gasp, gasp, and gasp again! An American in Paris ...Gasp, gasp, and gasp again! An American in Paris is one of my favorite Gene Kelly movies of all time, and I guess it's funny that we disagree on this one because one of my least favorite Gene Kelly movies is Singing in the Rain.<br /><br />Overall it could be because of the supporting cast. Whereas I used to think Debbie Reynolds was cute, I loved Kathryn Grayson in everything she's ever done (have you seen Showboat?) and of course who couldn't love Leslie Caron as the French girl in An American In Paris? That 22 minute ballet sequence is one of my favorite moments in movie history, with Gershwin's music behind it; absolutely fantastic!<br /><br />And no, I have to say I much prefer his dancing with Jerry Mouse than Mickey Mouse; you'd have had to have a young Mickey, which I'm not sure existed in that day, since the king was supposed to be a young boy, so to speak, and Jerry always comes across as much younger than Mickey; doesn't wear spats either. lol<br /><br />Well, at least you watched it, but my soul is breaking.Mitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02125633934727204568noreply@blogger.com
