Mini Review: Singin' In The Rain (1952)

Empire's 8th Greatest Movie:
Singin' In The Rain - 9.0/10

I watched the first film on my movie bucket list, which I ordered through Lovefilm, Singin' In The Rain (1952), about a silent film crew's and their evolution into making sound films, with some hurdles along the way. I gave it a hearty 9.0/10. It was a charming film with many laugh-out-loud scenes, too many to count but some stand out scenes were the infamous 'Singing In the Rain' dance scene with Gene Kelly, 'Make Em Laugh' performed by Donald O'Connor, the heartfelt ending and of course the hilariously devious simple minded Lina Lamont. Recommended for anyone feeling a little down in the dumps.
