As the film opens in 1927, dashing Don Lockwood (Gene Kelly) and blonde bombshell Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen) are one of Hollywood's favourite romantic teams, though Lina mistakenly believes their on-screen love is for real. Don has worked his way to the top the hard way via vaudeville and stunt work, and when <i>The Jazz Singer</i>, the first sound film, changes the cinematic rules, Don is ready to become a song and dance man. Lina, however, has tones that are somewhat less than dulcet...<div><br></div><div><div>--</div><div><br></div><div>People who tell me they hate musicals still love <i>Singin’ in the Rain</i>! Over 70 years since its release, <i>Singin’ in the Rain</i> is a big scale romp with outstanding choreography, vibrant colours and costumes, and big hilarity. As a young theatrical child watching on my Granny’s VCR, I felt as though Gene Kelly could leap off the screen. When I heard that title song, I felt as though I was floating on a cloud in a dream. I am over the moon to finally experience it on the big screen for the first time and watch this gem as it was intended. In recent times where moody and deep films seem to equal artistry, <i>Singin’ in the Rain</i> shines through. </div><div><br></div><div><i>Written by Stacey Brown, Front of House Manager</i></div></div><div><i><br></i></div><div><div>--</div><div><br></div><div>This film is such a joy to watch! I watched it with my brother Michael when we were younger. When a French pen pal came to stay, he improved his English by learning the words to <i>"Moses supposes his toeses are roses...". </i>I can't wait to see it on the big screen.</div><div><br></div><div><i>Written by Katy McTernan, Cinema Duty Manager</i></div></div>ComedyPT1H42MU2026-07-07
