Program Description
Event Details
Every Wednesday night at 6 pm, we invite you to join us at Mad for the Movies for free screenings of classic films with the intent of exploring and enjoying cinema from every era. Movies are chosen to fit a fresh theme each month which will typically highlight an actor or director, a genre, a time period, or a common plot element. You are welcome to stay after the film for a casual chat or treat it like a theater visit and leave as soon as the end credits roll.
Ever since sound came into film, the musical has been a popular genre. With song often comes dance. For this month, we will be showing musicals that contain innovative and influential dance sequences that are still talked about generations later.
On this night, we will be watching Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly's 1952 film "Singin' in the Rain" starring Kelly, Donald O'Connor, and Debbie Reynolds. It is rated G.
A silent film star falls for a chorus girl just as he and his delusionally jealous screen partner are trying to make the difficult transition to talking pictures in 1920s Hollywood.
