Singin' in the Rain


Singing in the Rain was produced in 1952 featuring Gene Kelly, Debbie Reynolds, and Donald O' Conner. The movie is about a film crew who transition between making silent movies to ones with sound in 1927. The group decides to make a musical as their first film with sound. This movie is a happy funny silly movie with many dance numbers. 

I actually started watching this movie when I was in grade school along with seven brides for seven brothers. I loved watching the musicals and dance numbers as a little girl, but now I watch this movie and think about the transition between sound and silent movies.

Personally I cant stand to watch silent movies because I feel like the actors are very dramatic to get the plot across. Also because the flow of the film is choppy due to the fact that the screen flips from the film to the text to let the audience know what is going on. Some people don't mind silent movies but they dislike black and white movies. Its a personal opinion but I love black and white movies if you didn't already catch onto that.

Always,
Avery
