It’s a genre you either love or hate: the musical! From Stanley Donen to Baz Luhrmann to Damien Chazelle, many have stuck to this delicate exercise over the decades. But do you know what AlloCiné viewers’ favorite musical comedy is?
Rated 4.3 out of 5, this is the great classic Singing in the Rain, released in theaters in 1953, one of those movies that do good and lift your spirits, which is recognized. Let us remind you that the film takes us back to the era when silent films gave way to talking films. The dancer-singer is caught in this difficult transition, as is his friend, his lover and his unpleasant co-star.
Led by Gene Kelly and Debbie Reynolds, Let’s Sing in the Rain, whose odd occurrence could ruin the iconic scene, arose from the desire of MGM studios to create a musical comedy that covered the hit songs of the thirties.
