Episode Description from the Publisher

Come Rain, come shine, come snow, come sleet, the show must go on! We are dancing our way through an all-time classic this week on Film Junk with the 1952 Gene Kelly musical Singin' in the Rain. The genre and era are a bit of a blind spot for us so we also brought in an "expert" to help us with our analysis. Does any of the humour still work for modern audiences? Which of the song and dance numbers are the most impressive? Is Donald O'Connor an unsung hero or is he just creepy? Is the movie truly a masterpiece or is it another case of classitosis? Make love to a bush and download this week's episode of Film Junk.
