Reminiscing for the Nostalgic

"The world is full of people whose notion of a satisfactory future is, in fact, a return to the idealized past." - Robertson Davies, A Voice from the Attic

I'm Kelly; lover of the 1940s, Gene Kelly, and Jesus. This blog is devoted to early 20th Century history, period dramas, Doctor Who, and my sexy French lover, Jean Dujardin.

Singin’ in the Rain reunion at the 58th Annual Academy Awards® in 1986.

They wore same raincoats, held same umbrellas, and walk the same way…!!

I hadn’t seen this clip before. Thanks for sharing!

Singin’ in the Rain had its premiere at Radio City Music Hall on March 27, 1952.

Imagine being in that crowd. It doesn’t matter that I’ve seen it countless times; I’d still be excited.

These are awesome, Courtney! I must know who who that man is in the white shirt in the last two. I’m not positive it’s Gene.

There was no Judy (I know, how could I?) Who would be Gene’s best partner?

  1. Vera Ellen
  2. Debbie Reynolds
  3. Rita Hayworth
  4. Cyd Charisse
  5. Esther Williams

Who would you pick?

I’m going with Rita….

Interesting question! Talent wise, I’d choose Cyd. For general compatibility, I’d go with Rita.
