Despite having a BFA in Music Theatre, co-host Jeff had never seen 'Singin' In The Rain'! What a loon! We are once again joined by Amy Jo Jackson, co-host of the 'And Almost Starring' podcast which breaks down the casting of popular movies. Amy Jo previously joined us for our In The Heights episode, has recently written a musical and loves this classic film, so what a perfect guest! We discuss why this movie ages well, the self-aware tone, elegant style, movie magic, how changing times affects art, stars Gene Kelly, Cyd Charisse, Debbie Reynolds, Donald O'Connor and Jean Hagen, and whether or not this is the greatest movie musical of all time. It's currently available on HBOMax.
