Good mornin'!
Among other things, I'm a freak about movie musicals from the Golden Age of Hollywood. J'adore them. And in my humble opinion, the likes of Gene, Judy, Fred, and Bing just don't get enough exposure or appreciation these days. I worry for the future youth of America!
Thankfully my favorite bloggers, Tom and Lorenzo (who I was lucky enough to meet a couple months back at a book signing) spearheaded Musical Monday, in which they hilariously rip apart these classic films — all out of love, of course.
Inspired by their way of spreading movie musical appreciation, I'm instating "Mad for musicals" Monday. For the first installment: "Good mornin'" from Singin' in the Rain.
Fun fact: Poor Debbie Reynolds had to be carried to her dressing room after filming this dance number because blood vessels had burst in her aching feet. But bless her, she sure grins through the pain.
