Makes you want to sing.

It is 1927, and Don Lockwood (Gene Kelly) and Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen), a recognized Hollywood duo, are making another movie. Everything is going along swimmingly when the movie “The Jazz Singer” (1927) comes out. Turns out that it is the beginning of the talkie era. This means plans must change. Now, quit getting ahead of me. You guessed it. Lina Lamont has a horrible accent and no umph in her voice. Turns out the ideal answer is to replace Linda with a much better voice, that of unknown Kathy Selden (Debbie Reynolds). Linda is going to make sure this does not happen. See the solution, and if it may accidentally (ya sure) get revealed. In the meantime, this is a musical, so the whole story is peppered with songs. They make each song fit the situation, and we have plenty of songs for the shower. Everyone will have a favorite song. For people who do not think it is natural to break out in song, it is not true in 1967 Vietnam, walking in the mud on the way to an observation tower; we were swinging an ammunition crate and singing “Singing' in the Rain.” On a dry day, we sang “Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah.”
