Widely regarded as one of the greatest movie musicals ever made, Singin’ in the Rain is a dazzling Technicolor celebration of Hollywood’s shift from silent films to sound. Bursting with iconic dance sequences, clever satire, and timeless songs, the film follows matinee idol Don Lockwood (Gene Kelly) as he navigates the chaos of early talkies, falls for aspiring actress Kathy Selden (Debbie Reynolds), and teams up with his quick-witted best friend Cosmo Brown (Donald O’Connor) to outwit a scheming co-star whose voice threatens to derail their first sound picture. Directed by Stanley Donen and Kelly, this exuberant classic pairs athletic choreography with a candy-colored visual style that epitomizes Hollywood’s Golden Age.
