The days of Debbie Reynolds and Gene Kelly dancing together would not bring in a soul to pay for the ticket and enjoy the movie. I met Kelly at Dodgers Stadium, at the concert of the Three Tenors. He used a walker, and was assisted by a young woman. His smile was radiant. I wanted to speak to him, however, too many people there that night. He was ailing and it was an effort to walk. Why do so many dancers end in severe arthritis? Kelly was a friendly, sensitive man.

It's no secret, that at that time, an actor had to know how to dance, sing, and act. That is a combination of talent. Today..the acting is good however, it is the nudity, the filthy language, and the open sex, that has destroyed motion pictures. I seldom go out to a picture. All you have to do is take you're clothes off, and make sexual advances. Such a pity.

I love this movie, because if you know the back story behind it it's really touching. This was the last film Judy did with MGM and originally Gene wasn't going to do it. He did it for her. His first movie at MGM was with Judy, For Me and My Gal. He was a rare and amazing talent, something that Hollywood is missing today. I don't know if I'm the only one I doubt it, but when you watch these old movies they actually get you to feel something not just enjoy the flashy effects.

@barelols I hear you... it was not meant as a shot at Astaire's style because his style was much different from Kelly. His was more ballroom style and Kelly was athletic

@ShortySOM I love your comment, but I hate it when astaire and kelly are compared, they are both the best dancers to have ever lived, and were both very different, they are both perfect
This is proof of how light on his feet Kelly was. To tap dance on a newspaper without ripping it at all. True his form of dancing was more athletic than Astaire's, but still graceful and floating on air.

He has the stature of a Greek god and the eligance of.....well....a tap dancer. And when he smiles, my heart sighs. I almost want to cry just thinking about it.
