Background Information
Singin' in the Rain is a 1952 American musical-romantic comedy film directed and choreographed by Gene Kelly and Stanley Donen, starring Kelly,Donald O'Connor, and Debbie Reynolds. It offers a lighthearted depiction of Hollywood in the late1920s, with the three stars portraying performers caught up in the transitionfrom silent films to "talkies."
The film was only a modest hit when first released. Donald O'Connor wonthe Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy, andBetty Comden and Adolph Green won the Writers Guild of America Award for theirscreenplay, while Jean Hagen was nominated for the Academy Award for BestSupporting Actress. But it has since been accorded legendary status bycontemporary critics, and is frequently regarded as the best movie musical evermade,and the best film ever made in the "Freed Unit" at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. It topped the AFI's Greatest Movie Musicals list and isranked as the fifth-greatest American motion picture of all time in its updatedlist of the greatest American films in 2007. In 1989, the United States Library of Congress selected the film for preservation in the National Film Registry.
