Good Morning

I want to watch this movie because I sometimes see some shadows of this movie in other film and television works, there are clips of the movie or the theme song, or a tribute to it. Before I watched it, the most impressive thing should be the theme song "singin'" "rain", you probably know that this should be a musical. I don't know that it turned out to be a story about a movie, a story that took place during the transition from silent movies to talking movies. Of course, this is not just a historical story, there are also many interesting stories, but through the film I also learned some history that I didn't know before. It turns out that the phonograph was invented by Edison, who made the movie sound. The first sound film was produced in the 1920s, which is the "Jazz Singer" mentioned in the film. To be honest, I don’t know much about the history of movies, so watching movies is more for relaxation. However, since the silent movie was mentioned in the film, I thought that I had never seen a silent movie, so after watching this movie, I looked for a famous silent movie to watch - Chaplin's "Modern Times" , seems to be the last silent movie. After watching it, I also know that the original silent movie is not really without any sound, there will still be background music and sound effects, or it will be played live. But maybe now I watch movies with sound. When I watch silent movies, sometimes I still feel a little awkward to see actors with mouths but no voices, especially when they are close-up. But sometimes only actions and expressions can be expressed very well, and it becomes even more interesting with the cooperation of music. Although there are joys in the modern era, it is still a sad story after all, and even at the end there is a longing for the future. Let's go back to "Singing in the Rain", the story here is not so heavy, in addition to the familiar colors, there are also singing and dancing foils. It is precisely because of the appearance of sound that musical films appear on the screen, perhaps that should be the most glorious era of musical films at that time. However, as the heroine said in the film when she first met the hero, they are two different professions, and even with sound, musicals cannot be equal to musicals. And when you watch some modern musicals and then go back to watch them, you may not be able to feel the classics. A classic may belong to an era, but it does not necessarily belong to everyone, especially a half-baked audience like myself. But the whole movie is still very enjoyable to watch, it is still good. There are many interesting stories, and I also saw those classic clips that appeared in the actual film and television, and sometimes the tone of speech is also very interesting. However, there are still some things that I don't quite understand, such as the introduction of the male protagonist at the beginning, does it mean that the actor's past is not important, or that the actor itself is composed of lies? There is also the part of hiding the microphone. I didn't show it when I filmed the song and dance where the heroine appeared. Do you have a hanging microphone? Why so much trouble, even though this part is quite funny. In fact, the supporting actress looks pretty in ancient costumes, but why does she always feel that she is a little fat? And her voice is sometimes very cute, and she feels a little pitiful. There are also male supporting roles. Fortunately, he has already realized that he is a male supporting role.
