    It tells the story of the comeback of an out-of-date musical actor. The film was released in the 1950s, and musical films began to decline. Astaire is in his fifties, and no matter how you look at it, you feel that this movie is tailor-made for Astaire. I have to say that Astaire deserves to be the "Dance King". He still maintains a slender figure in his fifties, his posture is relaxed and elegant, and his choreography is very creative. The singing and dancing scenes do not rely on crowd...

    It's super beautiful, with both traditional and warm singing and dancing scenes, and an avant-garde finale (Girl Hunt Ballet is really exciting). The singing and dancing scenes are closely integrated with the promotion of the plot, and neither choreography nor filming can be chosen.

The winning show seems to be a Hollywood creative manifesto. The combination with film noir, although only singing and dancing did not participate in the narrative, undoubtedly opened the door for later musicals to tell complex and less joyful...

    It's a very interesting text, loose, collage, self-referential, post-classic Hollywood text, it's not the song and dance that impresses, but the part where the hero and heroine walk silently through the night park, with no plot meaning but great The atmosphere of a scene, a bit of modern film meaning, and another interesting place is that both the song in the rain and this film parody film noir in the form of...
