The "Broadway melody" portion in singing in the rain was both relevant
and unneeded in this movie. In the beginning of this section it starts out
showing his trip to Broadway and how he got his chance with being a star. But
after that, all of the other scenes I felt were useless and hard to follow.
Like the scene with the gangster and the lady in green and the lady in white, I
saw no need for that in the film. I think it was just used for extra dance
scenes for the movie so Don Lockwood (Gene Kelly) could show off his dancing
skills or to possibly add another 20 minutes to the movie. Overall I thought
this was a well-made movie. I personally liked how they incorporated the
difficulties of getting the sounds correct with the positioning of the
microphone, and how they ended up using Kathy Seldon’s (Debbie Reynolds) voice
for Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen) so that she wouldn’t sound all high pitched and
annoying.

"The "Broadway melody" portion in singing in the rain was both relevant and unneeded in this movie." - This sentence confuses me; try to pick a side instead of giving equal weight to both ideas.
ReplyDeleteYou should also stick with one main point too. The last two sentences really don't hang with the other points you're trying to make. If you're pressed for words, try to decribe what is going on in the scene or what was difficult to follow.
And again, proofread for capitalization (e.g. Singing in the Rain).
