Thank you, A.O. Scott, for such a fabulous review of "Singin' In The Rain." It was and is the undeniably best movie musical ever made, and your review makes that clear. (My only criticism of your critique is your mention of Stanley Donen behind the camera. If you'll check your facts, Kelly and Donen co-directed the film.) I saw this film when I was a child - and it was made before I was born - but fell in love with Gene Kelly and his dancing. Thank you again for your wonderful review.
@leonbrokenhand Well, she wasn't MEANT to be a stunner. Her character was that of a city girl trying to make it big, and she wasn't MEANT to be amazing, but in Dom's eyes, she was. I don't think they could have cast her better, in my opinion.
Excellent overview of the movie. It will remind everyone of how superior MGM's Arthur Freed Unit was. Not before or since has there been anything like his work.
Mr.Scott, Thanks for posting and your comments are appreciated. But when you describe Mis Reynolds as sexy you are going wrong. Why would they put Reynolds in this movies, is the question? Can't dance, singing is mediocre and no sex appeal. (Jr high is many things but it is never sexy. )

@GonzalesGal09 Hey, I loved her, so don't get me wrong. There were too many really great dancers and singers to select Reynolds. That's all I meant.

Jane Russel should have gotten this lead role.

That's probably the best conceivable introd. to Singin' in the Rain. Well done by Mr Scott and the Times
